Making what we believe was only its third outing in passenger service for West Coast since the loco was acquired from ROG earlier this year, 47815 is pictured on arrival at Edinburgh Waverley with 1Z79 0555 'Spirit of the Lakes' charter from Peterborough (08/12/2021)
Later that evening 47854 awaits departure from Doncaster with the 1Z80 1549 Edinburgh - Peterborough return leg. In a pre-planned swap, 'Diamond Jubilee' had replaced 37518 at Joppa during the recess after the 'Type 3' had earlier worked the empty stock across from Carnforth (08/12/2021)
Two days later I was back in Scotland's Capital for the third time in a week: 47854 is seen here on the rear of 1Z83 0558 from Cleethorpes (10/12/2021)
