amazing-a-50049-jp.jpg (48148 bytes)

On Saturday 25th September 2004 something quite AMAZING happenned at Stratford E.London! In the space of less than 1 hour two of the most unlikely classes went through the station... and this is the first. Other than maybe visiting nearby the long gone Stratford Depot, class 50s would only have made very occasional visits to the region. Here we see 50049 recently restored to Large Logo Blue bringing its westcountry bound charter train through the station.

mh-d444-jp.jpg (143436 bytes)

D444 is the very first class 50 to carry this livery as on BR they all ran in blue from the start. Although it is therefore not an authentic colour scheme it seems we think, to suit the class well. The loco is mainline approved so it should make a good site on the front of charters later this year. Pictured arriving at Medstead and Four Marks on the Watercress Line at their Diesel Gala on the 23rd May 2004.
