One to the sea! 09/02

Here’s a few photos from today’s loco hauled DMU replacement services on the Norwich locals, featuring 20304 and 47712. God only knows the last time a single 20 made it to the coast on an advertised service train. Thanks to the staff on the trains today for being so accommodating to us all, and of course a special thanks to “them wot made it happen”. Nuff said.
