WCRC 47 on 'one' Thunderbrid Duties?

[Daniel]

Around 4 o'clock this afternoon, I saw a Cotswold Rail Class 47703 on the Norwich end of an Intercity set at Liverpool Street

Any reason for the different 47 on a thunderbrid? I've only every seen 90's on rescues towards the southern end of the route.

This was 47703 which is a Cotswold Loco

 

[Daniel]

Ah, thank you.

I heard 47703 worked 1630 LST-NRW

 

[Daniel]

That's more like it. Sorry, just noticed something else wrong - I got the 1533 from Enfield which would have got into LST around 1600.

As far as I know it worked an ECS which left LST at 1630ish.

Cotswold Rail proivde a 47 on standby for One services - usually its at Colchester during the day and goes to Shenfield for evening peak.
