The British Rail Class 50 was designed to haul express passenger trains at 100 mph.

What most rail enthusiasts don’t know is that they can actually go much faster than this if you only fit the same English Electric engine into each Mark 2.

If you’re taking your family out in this, remember to open the windows and bring ear defenders. #class50 #hoover #trainspotting #railphotography #railway #railwayphotography #hotrod #trains
