87015 - Howard

15th January 2004

87015, “Howard” is my personal favourite seven. For a few years 87015 sported unique silver window frames.
Had the honour to work the first 0733 Nortampton-Euston on 270904, a rateable farewell off me local station. Lasted only a few more days in traffic after this as WN cleverly blew the transformer.... Moved to MOD Caerwent for "secure storage" but cut on October 2005....RIP...
