A lucky patch of spring sunshine at Badgeworth on 17 March 1994, as 47484 Isambard Kingdom Brunel heads for the races with the 1Z46 09:03 Paddington to Cheltenham Gold Cup special. An appropriate choice of traction for such a train, and with an equally appropriate 'Cheltenham Flyer' headboard. 47484 would return the happy (assuming they had bet on the winner 'The Fellow') punters to the capital with the 1Z90 18:20 Cheltenham to Paddington. |
