Prototype Another dose of the Blues..........

I found a few more pictures of diesels in the blue era - hope you like these as well
A class 45 on a St. Pancras -Sheffield service passing through Loughborough Midland station:






A Class 45 rescues a failed 47 on the afternoon Derby-London parcels service. Taken south of Knighton junction, Leicester.

Leicester's 'Gronk' 08021 shunting the post office siding at Leicester Midland.

That's your lot. I regret that at the moment I cannot transfer other 'Blue Days' photos for technical reasons - hopefully that may change soon. I do hope my amateur efforts give some pleasure.

Lovely photos Roger

The 31 though is not hauling HAAs, they look more like the 24 ton hoppers that Accurascale have just produced.

Thank you Richard,
I put my hands up and admit to guessing the wagon type - not my strong point and as it was forty-odd years ago I am claiming old age forgetfulness ! Glad you enjoyed the pictures and most obliged for your input !

Roger.
