Even though it is now nearly thirty year's old, 59001 is still on the mainline earning its keep! It was a pioneer when it first arrived on our shores in 1986 and I clearly remember seeing it for the first time passing through Westbury station. Here, it is seen passing Baulking with the 6C48 13.00 Appleford to Whatley quarry empty stome train looking very smart in its Aggregate Industries bright blue, turquoise and centre silver striped livery.
