47009 approaches Chinley on 19 June 1984 with the 1M70 10:09 Barrow-in-Furness to Nottingham. 47009 was one of the 47s that managed to hang on to its corporate BR blue livery right until the end, although it did later acquire a grey roof. It survived amid a sea of more colourful machines, until finally withdrawn in March 1991. It was cut up the following year.
