47635 Portway 25 May 2001

A colourful juxtaposition at Portway on 25 May 2001. 47635 in obsolete parcels sector red livery passes a field of oilseed rape in full bloom as it works the 6P37 13:06 Toton to Bescot Enterprise. This should have been an even more colourful combination, with 37801 & 37714 dead in tow in the train, en-route to Spain. Prior to export these 37s had been painted in a startling light blue livery.
