47055, up parcels, Bradford-on-Avon number 1 foot crossing 
 47055 leads an up parcels working along the Avon Valley. It is approaching Bradford-on-Avon taken from one of the two foot crossings in this area. Both are now tricky to take pictures from as, like so much of the railway, they are chronically overgrown. 47055 is still active on the network today. It went through a number of changes in its life ending up as one of Virgin's red Thunderbirds. It is now a DRS machine numbered 57304 'Pride of Cheshire' and one that I have photographed at various locations and one that, at the time of writing, is coming up for 54 years old, just a year younger than me!
