DRS Class 47 No. 47813, now named 'Solent', is seen at the rear of an unusual convoy passing through Tutbury and Hatton Station on 28th June 2013. This working 5Z31 was around two and a half hours late travelling from Derby RTC to Crewe L&NWR, and the other DRS locomotives were Class 57 No's. 57012 and 57004 and the Class 37 No. 37688. Like the other locos No. 47813 was immaculately clean, befitting an engine chosen earlier in the week to work with inspection saloon 'Caroline', more usually worked by a Class 37/4.
