The OLD & NEW..! Class 50 HOOVER Runs-Around a Class 756 FLIRT at Worcester..! 19/06/23

A very rare pairing here! See 50007 on a unit drag to Long Marston with Class 756 Flirt 756003..!
Watch as the consist arrives into the greenery at Worcester Sidings, before the Hoover runs around the unit to be able to head onwards towards Evesham & Long Marston.
The footage ends with a view of 50007 (wearing 50034 for commercial reasons!) at speed through Worcestershire Parkway on-route to Long Marston.
Hope you enjoy the video! Thanks for watching.

Home from home for 007 as it was a Worcester loco for many years, especially under its guise as "Sir Edward Elgar". Travelled behind it many times between Kingham and London. 5:55 - I know which one I would rather have take me to Paddington!

hi there, hope the 756 is going to the scrap yard, terrible design compared to 1960s trains
