67029 'Royal Diamond' brings up the rear of the 19.16 Wembley Central to Liverpool South Parkway footex carrying disappointed Liverpool supporters home after their team lost the Community Sheild to Manchester City 5-4 on penalties. The electric at the front, 90019 'Intermodal' lead the outward and return working so both locomotives will have run round when the train was laid-up in Wembley yard. It would have made sense to have an electric at both ends to avoid this rather unnecessary move but I suspect that on arrival at Liverpool South Parkway that the electric would have been detached and 67029 would have taken the train back to its base at Burton-on-Trent where there are no wires.
