50029 Renown & 50050 Fearless round the curve from the Gloucester line, as they approach Swindon station on 25 October 1982 with the 1A01 08:02 Worcester Shrub Hill to Paddington service. A premium headcode, and double premium traction! I'm not sure what the problem was, or indeed if there was one, as the train was only a few minutes late. Not a very good picture, taken from an awkward position, in miserable light, but although I have got numerous double headed Class 50 pictures from the preservation era, I have got very few from their days with BR. |
