Airshow Daytripper

An unusual sight for Macclesfield was this morning's Southend Airshow Daytripper, run by Retro Railtours from Leeds. In dull and flat conditions the pair of 31s up front. Bringing up the rear was a class 67.

Eagle142 is seen beyond the pond snapping away happily.

Having packed up and about to head for home we were surprised by the appearance of 2 47s on a Pullman liveried rake of empty stock heading towards Manchester. I assume that this will be for a special to the Champions League cup final at Wembley where Manchester United are one of the teams involved.
