47777 Defford 23 July 1994

Nice loco, shame about the stock! 47777 Restored passes Defford on 23 July 1994 with the Cheshire Railtours 1Z16 Crewe to Minehead 'West Country Express' railtour. The first coach looks great, but the remainder of the train is formed of the infamous Pilkington liveried Mk1 set - surely one of the worst ever coaching stock liveries.
