Ex Barrow Road "!loco" returns to Bristol

Post by DAVE »

Jubilee class 5690[45690] Leander an ex 82E engine returns to Bristol on the 25th March with a Vintage trains railtour from Birmingham.
Although now running in crimson livery unlike the brunswick green in its final 4 or so years at Barrow road it will be good to welcome back an engine that was based at Barrow Road for a continuous period of 17 years until withdrawal in 1964.
