This is one Class 50 livery that I never did see on the mainline. The blue roofed version of the large logo livery was only applied to 50010 Monarch, purely because Landore depot didn't have any grey paint! It only carried this colour scheme for a short period, during which time I never saw it. However, the blue roofed colour scheme is one of the liveries that 50031 Hood has carried in preservation, and so this was my chance to get a picture at last. Hood approaches Foley Park Tunnel on 27 May 1995 with the 11:55 Bridgnorth to Kidderminster Severn Valley Railway service.
