30/12/89: A rare photo of 47616 hauling a 4TC unit, more usually hauled by class 33's or 50's. 616 had just arrived with a semi fast from Waterloo on the penultimate day of the 1980's. This was during the period when 50's had taken over from 33's on the Waterloo-Salisbury semi-fasts hauling 4TC units. Class 50 availability was not at its best and 33's continued to substitute, this being an extremely rare occasion when a 47 covered one of these workings. Copyright: Neil Walkling
