As far as we are aware this is a FIRST! A Fragonset class 33 locomotive pictured here at the buffer stops at London's Liverpool Street Station. Class 33s have never been regular visitors to this station, and with the exception of the occassional rail tour you would not expect to see one here. 33202 'Meteor' is slightly narrower than the 33/0's so as to enable it to go through some tunnels that had reduced clearence...hence the nickname 'Slim Jim'. The train is the 'Cathedrals Express' to Ely and the date is the 26th August 2003.
