A going-away photograph at Roade sees former Virgin Thunderbird 57312 dead-in-tow at the rear of the 12.00 Derby RTC to Wolverton Works 5H70 working running ten minutes early. It's difficult to make out but 57312 is painted in black with ROG blue vinyls over the top. At the front, 47813 'Jack Frost' is leading the train. The carriages were being moved to Wolverton to be used as barrier coaches the next day for the conveying of 442414 back to its home depot at Bournemouth by the two ROG locomotives.
