  66779 all covered up with canvas sheeting to conceal its number (and livery). left Newport Docks 25mins early but held at Worcester to correct timings.   46 spotters at Walsall...all on the same platform!

66779 is due to be 'unwrapped' on 10 May at the National Railway Museum in York, to commemorate the fact it is the 480th and final Class 66 to be built for the UK.

I have to say it looks superb and a fitting setting and name.
