40145 OZ40 Today

[carlwestwood]

40145 works the late running 0Z40 Bescot TMD - Fletton (Nene Valley Railway). The loco was delayed by a wrongly routed freight train at Nuneaton - off which is was used to drag backwards!

Getting ready for this weekends Class 40s 50th Anniversary.

Looks good, but I'm sticking to choppers instead

are they doing a tour for the 50th?

also, what's a chopper (in railway terms obviously)

 

[matt]

Chopper is a Class 20

Nope, 40145 is going to Nene Valley for the Class 40's 50th anniversary weekend. This is big for Nene Valley because this will be the first class 40 to run alongside D306

Great Shots there Carl

Only thing is i do wish they would get rid of that rapped around yellow look,it makes it look like a over grown Siphon to me.

Go back to BR blue,with just yellow warning on the fronts and it will look a 40 or Tats as we use to call them in my days
