These days following the loss of postal work...for which the class were specifically designed...67s can turn up on almost anything but a regular booked freight is still a bit of rarity. This is an exception though as 67027 approaches the end of its journey to Ely for a local business. This is the first time we have seen such a train and the opportunity to photograph it was not missed. The date was August 20th 2004 at Ely.

'Skips' or class 67s make an interesting sight on freight trains although these days in an effort to find work for them it is not that unusual.
