[howarth004]

did not know the 57 was called a bodysnatcher? or is that meaning the sleeper. nice bit of filming

[HSTcerney]

@howarth004 its because it has the body of a 47... something like that anyway

[zaccee1996]

@howarth004 thanks :) the 57 is nicknamed a bodysnatcher because it was a Class 47 and it got re-engined and refurbed in 2003 into a 57...

[howarth004]

@zaccee1996 thanks for that, I knew the 57 was from the 47 , but did not know it was named Bodysnatcher
