66101 has 47780 in tow, as it passes through Radley station on 25 June 2001 with the featherweight 6S65 15:19 Eastleigh to Mossend Enterprise (MoD) freight. I wasn't in the ideal position to photograph this, as when I saw it was Class 66 hauled I wasn't going to bother taking a picture. It was only when I saw the Res 47 tucked inside that I grabbed a shot. The predecessor of this train was well known for unusual loco combinations, and this is certainly an unusual combination, but it would have been so much better if the locos were the other way round! |
