87002 returns to the WCML!

87002 'Royal Sovereign' heads north through Acton Bridge station with 12 on. *sniff*
...Oh yes, and a big maroon lump on the rear.

You're welcome PrentonPimp. I don't think I ever saw 87101 though... 87035 is currently undergoing a repaint into, yes you've guessed it, BR Blue. If the owners of number 31 are viewing this, we hope it'll go into Intercity Swallow, or even Virgin Red! LOL!

Hi Guys.

Just a bit of info for you, 87035 is at Crewe Heritage Centre undergoing an overhaul - and that was last time I saw it which was the back end of February. Either an overhaul to make it a 'static' or maybe to running order? If ever goes mainline again, I will be one of the first people to book on it's debut tour as 87035 is my beast of the class!

Regards,

Rob.

God, I have so many happy memories on these beasts. Never did quite get an afull lenght WCML. The one time I tried to, on the 1st southbound from Glasgow, it got diverted via Northampton. Great Video.
