Class 33 33005 leaving Southampton with a train to Bristol on 28th July 1981 under the classic gantry of semaphore signals at the western end of the platforms, heading off into the bright afternoon sun. The locomotive is in BR Rail Blue with yellow ends, and the first vehicle is a Mark 1 Corridor Composite coach in blue/grey livery, with a yellow line above the first class compartments https://flic.kr/p/2mNgaCa
Time to resurrect a theme I used to run on t'other place.
