47450 approaches Banbury on 28 April 1990 with the 1V97 15:18 Manchester Piccadilly to Paddington service. Around this time a lot of Class 47/4s were being fitted with extended range fuel tanks, and renumbered into the 47/8 range. 47450 was not so lucky, being withdrawn a year after this picture was taken, and then cut up at Booth Roe, Rotherham, two years later. |
