A large logo 47 county of essex? is sat in Bletchley carriage sidings at the head of a mixed rake of wcrc and green liveried stock: the train is facing north but looks shut down

Not got the TRUST number to hand but apparently was suffering a loss of power and couldn't go faster than 35mph. Was running from Southall to Carnforth.

According to the loco owning group (Stratford 47 Group) TRUST is wrong and it is a coach issue not a loco issue

It was racking up a good few minutes delay, interesting to see if the owners cop for the cost.

The 47 is fired up this morning and has been detached from the train and is stood with a support coach on the adjacent road - looks like it was a coach not loco problem

The 47 passed Crewe, en route back to Carnforth with the WCRC stock, at around 11:15 on Thursday morning.
