47299 Hinksey 5 July 1991

Running exactly to time, 47299 passes Hinksey Yard on 5 July 1991, during the last week of Speedlink operations, with the 6V19 05:15 Bescot to Didcot, which on this occasion unusually was totally comprised of empty flats. The loco had received the unofficial name Ariadne the previous week.
