Thunderbird at Bletchley

An unusual sight noted at Bletchley this morning was a Virgin Thunderbird seen at 1020 in the carriage sidings. Normally, the nearest based Class 57 is at Rugby although until a couple of years ago they were regularly seen in the Parcels Dock at Bletchley station. They were also sometime regulars at Milton Keynes Central, normally on weekends, being stationed in Platform 1.

Identity of this morning's visitor is unknown and its reason for being there is unclear. I am hoping to get out to do some photography locally as the weather should be fine so it will be interesting to see whether a 57 puts in an appearance at Bletchley again tomorrow.
