50019 Ramillies approaches Walton Well Road, Oxford, on 21 May 1983 with the 1A25 08:05 Hereford to Paddington service, passing 56114 waiting in the down loop with MGR empties from Didcot Power Station. Ramillies is in the original blue livery, but in refurbished condition, with plated over sandboxes, and a revised roof layout, although perhaps the most obvious difference is the centrally placed headlight. Only the first six locos to be refurbished were outshopped in this all over blue. |
