Class 47s have now been part of the UK railway system for over 60
years. They have been used on every type of train over the years,
including front line passenger, freight and charter trains. During
the late 1980s and through the following 20 years, however, many
locos were steadily withdrawn from service with their former duties
being taken over by newer fixed formation electric and diesel
units. However, due to their versatility and almost a �go
anywhere' capability, many of the newer operating companies that
appeared during this period saw the potential in further use for
them. Although the vast majority have long since been scrapped,
there is still a good amount of examples that can been seen at work
throughout the UK. This book shows the duties the class has worked
from around the mid-1980s through to the present time.
