The last of the VoR locos to lose BR blue was No. 7, which reverted in 1983 to a variation on lined BR green . However the name and number plates stayed in the same positions and the BR heraldic device was applied to the cab sides. Owain Glyndwr crosses the Rheidol bridge at Llanbadarn while returning to Aberystwyth from Devil's Bridge on 4 November 1988. The black flags mark it being the last day of scheduled BR operation prior to privatisation.
