43159 Dainton 22 June 1996

Having just emerged from Dainton Tunnel, 43159 starts to roll downhill on 22 June 1996 with the 1A82 17:00 Penzance to Paddington service. Not that many pictures are taken from this angle, as the usual photographic vantage point is the field in the background, which is an ideal spot to photograph trains (especially steam) slogging up the gradient.
