That isn't 47316 coz 47316 has never carried that livery before.

Great video tho.

@DRS37412 Well spotted that man, it should read 47315. Many thanks.

Fantastic video mate, such a shame we won't see days like them again.

Great stuff - but hasn't your widescreen got squeezed sideways a bit?

Great clips, thanks for uploading! The 33s thrashing was particularly enjoyable!

I used to live by a railway line and in the early hours of the morning 33's used to go past with freight. Scary as hell... you'd wake up to the sound of thunder with the entire foundations of the house shaking. Brutal shit Im telling you!!
