43272 & 43290 at Bamfurlong - 01st March 2023
The former what I believe we're East Midlands Railway power cars 43272 & 43290 now working for Colas Rail Freight & Network Rail were operating another of the regular test trains today working south along the WCML from Edinburgh to Crewe passing me just before 11am ontime.
Weather these will end up in yellow I'm not sure of. I haven't seen the full yellow set for a very long time now.
