Yesterday, the Swanage Belle from London Victoria was hauled south by an LMS Class 5MT No 44871.
It was hauled back to London Waterloo by a King Arthur Class No 30777 Sir Lamiel. It was tonking along amid a cloud of the most foul smelling smoke. Lovely!!!
The first shot was taken from a road bridge over the line at West Byfleet, and the second one was from the platform on West Byfleet station.
I don't know much about steam engines and the technical terms relating to them, but I know what I like, and I like what I know.
