82139, 16.21 Manchester Piccadilly-London Euston (1Z96, 2E), Roade hill 
 With the evening sunshine tantalisingly close 82139 heads southwards leading the 16.21 Manchester Piccadilly to Euston LSL Avanti relief service. It's interesting to note the different shades of white applied to the side of the DVT. I am not sure if these two shades, with the second one extending the length of the Mk. III stock is the same as it was when it was applied by BR in the 1980s and 1990s or simply that a different shade of paint was found!
