En route home off 1M87 the following evening, 47352 appeared at Man Vic on 1M32 1617 Newcastle-Liverpool. It was 'new' so an hour later I found myself at Lime Street instead of Bradford. Cue explaining to parents etc... (15/07/1986)
The highlighter was out again the next day too! This time it was for Kingmoor's 47119, pictured at Preston with 1F31 1400 to Liverpool Lime Street (16/07/1986)

Not the best of phots, but I think it's the only one I've got of 47124. My third 'winner' of the week had just arrived at Liverpool Lime Street with the SO 1M31 0815 ex-Yarmouth (19/07/1986)

47365 at Liverpool Lime Street with the stock for the 1640 to Paddington. I headed back to Preston on '529, so I'm not sure whether it was performing a 'shunt-release' or actually worked the train (04/08/1986)
Making a pleasant change from chasing off around the country for a 'new' one, 47341 arrives at my home town of Bingley with 1M72 1605 Leeds-Carlisle (05/08/1986)
