50017, 50007, 50050 & 41001 Cossington 31 March 2016

A sparkling cavalcade of classic traction passes Cossington on 31 March 2016. 50017 Royal Oak, 50007 Hercules, 50050 Fearless, prototype HST power car 41001 & three immaculately restored MK3 HST coaches form the 5Z50 09:10 Hotchley Hill East Leake to Leicester, en-route to the Mid Norfolk Railway Diesel Gala. Unfortunately this was running 45 minutes late, which has resulted in the sun being rather too head on. After picking up 37905, this cavalcade would then proceed to the Mid Norfolk Railway, running as the 5Z50 12:10 Leicester to Dereham.
