BR Class 47 47230, Crewe - a photo on Flickriver

            By the late 1980s regular inroads were being made into the ranks of Class 47.  At the Open Day at Crewe Works on 4th. July 1987 several withdrawn examples could be found dumped alongside older redundant motive power such as Class 40s.  47230 is seen here looking rather sorry for itself.
