Hi Matt, welcome to the forum.
You want to see a 67? Imagine a skip turned upside down with wheels under it and an EWS paint job - there; saved you wondering!
Enjoy your spotting.

Wrexham & Shropshire use 67s on their service to Marylebone, which is south as far as we in Cheshire are concerned !

This is what they look like

'school boy errors!'

the only thing i could recomend is check stock exchange in 'the railway magazine' or you could of seen the number of a skip upside down!but as people have mensioned there are only 30 class 67's ever built and some of them are on loan to wrexham&shropshire,but i heard about them being on demand,but i got a feiling you saw a class 73 ed because thats the only thing nearest a class 67 they own

Hi MATT, this will be my 1st comment on the foram site but here goes,
from memory only 30 class 67s were built so therefore 67030
would be the highest number, unless modifications have been carried
and been given new numbers.
hope this helps, mick farmer, milton keynes
