A trip to Longbridge seemed a good idea, as an overhauled 86248 was to be towed from Long Marston to Crewe for electrical testing. It looked very smart in the “Floyd” black livery, and was towed by 66725. A blue 66 no. 60044 was worth seeing & 66301 also helped to break the monotony of the usual units 4 units and 3 locos to add to the list of my photo “cops” for the gallery. 60044 on 6E41 Westerleigh to Lindsey @ 14.00 66301 on 4G09 Chaddesden to Portbury @ 14.11 66725 towing 86248 on 0Z90 Long Marston to Crewe @ 15.06
