50049 and 50031 pass Cockwood Harbour with a railtour
For many years the combination of 50031 and 50049 kept the flame of Class 50 operation alive on the main line. The pair are seen on 1st October 2005 passing Cockwood Harbour with a railtour. This fine photographic location has since been ruined by Network Rail security fencing! (Mark Burrows)
