These photographs of Class 73 Electro Diesel E6003 "Sir Herbert Walker" were taken on Sunday 15th March at the Swindon & Cricklade Railway.

This loco was a prototype for the Class 73s, being built in 1962.  The class worked almost exclusively on BR Southern Region, and was withdrawn in 1993.  In preservation, "Sir Herbert Walker" has seen service on the Mid Hants Railway, the Lavender Line in Sussex, on the Great Central Railway, and since 2001, on the Swindon & Cricklade.

She is owned by the Electro-Diesel Locomotive Group.  See their website at http://www.edlg.co.uk/ for full details of the loco and the group.
