50019 Oxford 23 July 1989

A very pleasant surprise at Oxford on 23 July 1989. 50019 Ramillies slowly negotiates the pointwork to the south of Oxford station, as it brings an engineering train in from the Banbury line. As it was clear that it was going to drop off something (the wagons, tamper and van at the front of the train) in Oxford South Yard, a quick dash was made to Hinksey Yard for a second picture of this unusual appearance of a DCWA Class 50 in the Oxford area.
