Description
The Fifty Fund end their 30th anniversary year by bringing us Christmas early, with 50044 'Exeter' stretching her legs on the mainline for her first solo run since 2012, having previously ran triple headed with 50007 and 50049 earlier in this year with GBRf's "This Time it's Personal" tour.

"The Beverley Christmas Carol" saw 50007 'Hercules' and 50044 'Exeter' run top and tail from Doncaster, having taken over from DB Cargo 90034. The return journey from Beverley saw 50044 take lead of the train back to Doncaster, with the pair then returning to Kidderminster, with a brief stop off at Chesterfield for a team photo.
