22nd Aug 1989

A fairly nondescript ETH Class 47/4 at the time, 47631 is seen outside Bath Road TMD. Once a steam-heat-only loco, no. 47059, this engine was later converted into a Class 47/7 no. 47765, and is still with us, preserved and currently (2019) wearing Scotrail livery on the Great Central Railway (North)( heritage line.
