David Wood has sent in shot number three of a class 67 ('skip') in new Arriva Trains Wales livery, as yet, unbranded. The loco is light engine 67003 and it is pictured passing through Winwick, northbound, on 22nd September 2011. The working was a driver training exercise from Arpley to Heaton in Manchester.
