47347 Finedon Road 21 May 1989

Railfreight Metals locomotive, Network SouthEast coaches! 47347 passes Finedon Road on 21 May 1989 with the Hertfordshire Railtours 1T13 16:48 Leicester to St Pancras special, one of a number of unusual combinations of motive power and stock used during the 'InterCity Diesel Day'. 47347 had just been allocated to Crewe depot, although it is still carrying its former depot's Thornaby Kingfisher bodyside emblem. Note the long lines or redundant vacuum braked hoppers stored in the sidings in the background.
