47749 City of Truro passes Islip in the rain on 19 April 2024 with the 5Q75 09:21 Eastleigh to Bicester MoD, conveying brand new South Western Railway EMU 701530 for storage. Although a very tentative move has been made to introduce these new units into traffic, this only amounts to a few trains per day, and so there is the ridiculous sight of the recently delivered units being dragged miles away from their intended area of operation by a 60 year old diesel loco! |
