50020, 11.22 Liverpool Lime Street-London Paddington (1V41), London Paddington station A throwback from GWR days was when one could get a direct service train all the way from Merseyside to Paddington that has now disappeared from our railways. 50020 'Revenge' has just arrived with the 1V41 11.22 from Liverpool Lime Street that it hauled from Birmingham New Street with AC power to there. Considering that 50020 had only returned to traffic after its refurbishment and repaint into 'large-logo' livery exactly two months to the day previously it is already beginning to look a little work-weary! Unfortunately, BR did not always take a great deal of care maintaining the external appearance of their locomotives, ironically exacerbated by putting them too frequently through the washer that contained too much caustic cleaning agent causing chronic paint fade.
