Virgin's new THUNDERBIRD loco 57302 is appropriately named after one of that programmes famous characters VIRGIL TRACY. Give the loco a truly eyecatching livery and you have got a class of loco that, when you add bright sunshine are going to result in some colourful pictures. This one was taken at Nuneaton on a glorious Summer's day the 12th July 2003.
