57601, outward leg of The Bath Christmas Statesman, 04.12 Aberystwyth-Bath (1Z82), King's Sutton Thank goodness for the weak burst of sunshine that has just managed to illuminate the front and sides of West Coast's drab liveried 57601! The locomotive is leading the outward leg of Statesman Rail's charter to Bath that left Aberystwyth at an unearthly 04.12! Initially, the charter was piloted by departmental 97303 (formally 37178) as far as Shrewsbury due to it being fitted with ERTMS equipment enabling it to operate on the Cambrian line, something that the Class 57 could not do. The train is seen passing King's Sutton. Keywords: 57601 The Bath Christmas Statesman 04.12 Aberystwyth-Bath 1Z82 King's Sutton West Coast Railways Statesman Rail
