47512 passes Langford Lane, Wendlebury, on 22 April 1986 with the 6V04 12:30 Calvert to Bristol Avon Binliner empties. 47512 could easily be recognised from virtually any distance in 1986 (at least from this side), by virtue of its partially missing BR logo. This well known freight train had only started running the previous year, but I don't suppose anybody in those days would have thought that the old brick pits at Calvert could go on taking Bristol's rubbish for another quarter of a century! |
