Main Line Steam in London
28th November 2009


Each image links to a larger copy which opens in a new window/tab

 
There were three main line steam locos in service in the London area on the 28th November 2009. First was the departure of 60019 Bittern from Victoria at 08:54 for Worcester. I photographed her at Wandsworth Town at 09:12. At 12:51 I caught 34067 Tangmere passing Vauxhall station for a 13:05 scheduled arrival at Waterloo. Due the platform used and the position of the sun these were the least successful images of the day. Finally, 60007 Sir Nigel Gresley was scheduled to arrive at Kings Cross at 14:07, passing Finsbury park at 13:53. The direct Victoria Line link from Vauxhall to Finsbury Park got me their by 13:25, allowing me to photograph 60007 at 13:40, nearly 15 minutes early.
