Two class 50s seemed to be overkill for a single empty coach but that's what was provided to work 5V50, a 10:18 Eastleigh T&RSMD to Reading TCD empty stock move, conveying a single coach from the GWR sleeper fleet, fresh from a visit to Eastleigh Works. The train was photographed heading north from Mortimer on 25 January 2025 with 50008 leading and 50007 on the back.
