How about this for a lineup of traction? Ten of my 15 class 47s are seen in these photos. They are (photo 1) 474 in parcels red, 834 in intercity swallow, 701 in network southeast, 346 civil engineering Dutch livery, 599 in railfreight metals, and 708 in scotrail. Photo 2 has 436 in large logo, 461 in scotrail, 535 in large logo and 475 in trans pennine. The line up is ready for me filming video 82, which will go live on 5th January 2022, the exact date of the 40th anniversary of sectorisation. The locos at the head of the trains are each painted in the liveries of the revenue earning sectors, and the civil engineering department. No other class of loco except the 08 can boast about being painted in each sector livery!
