Relatively fresh after its Doncaster overhaul and still looking smart

50019 'Ramillies' leads the 14.00 Penzance to Birmingham New Street past Aller Junction. 50019 was the fourth member of the class to be overhauled that took it out of traffic for nearly a year with it entering the works in July 1979. By the end of the overhaul programme, the locomotives were turned around a lot more quickly with some taking considerably less than five months. Notice the signal box in the background where the signalman will have been kept busy on this spring Saturday and his VW Beetle parked up behind the box.
