This is the only time we have pictured an EWS class 47 in unbranded Virgin Livery actually on a train. This is a Res loco that joined the Cross Country fleet for a while...hence the colour scheme. We thouht this Serco train seen at Mill Hill on February 11th 2004 might be its last run but as it has turned out 47750 has been doing some passenger turns on the N.Wales Coast...the only place now Res 47s are currently running. However, this does not look likely to continue for much longer.
