The sun glints on the front of 47851 as this charter from the north makes its classic final approach to Kings Cross London...now somewhat spoilt by the catenary...by appearing from Gasworks Tunnel. The date is 4th March 2006 but the sight of a green class 47 followed by maroon Mk1 coaches brings back memories from a bygone age.
