A fine spring evening at last. The former Freightliner Class 57s are now regulars on DRS nuclear flask traffic and 57003+57007 are seen here heading south at Woodacre with a Sellafield to Crewe train. These locos emerged from the Brush works at Loughborough in early 1965 as D1798 and D1813, later becoming 47317 and 47332.
