The final appearance of two state-of-the-art locomotives on East Anglian tracks has raised more than £10,000 for a children's charity.
The Class 68 diesel trains, which are the newest diesel-electric engines in the country, have been a regular sight in the region for the past 15 months, covering for a locomotive undergoing long-term repairs since last summer.
The locomotives were 'top and tailed' with Greater Anglia carriages for Saturday's journey, with about 120 rail enthusiasts paying a premium to be part of the historic journey. Proceeds from the trip from Norwich to Liverpool Street and back will be donated to East Anglia's Children's Hospices.
