43321 Little Haresfield 16 March 2009

43321 leads the 1V19 06:00 Leeds to Plymouth Cross Country service past Little Haresfield on 16 March 2009. The rooks are busy nest building in the trees in the background and at least one has taken flight (directly above the HST's windscreen) at the sound of the approaching train. The promised sunny start to the day hadn't really happened and although it was out it was very weak. Nevertheless, what shadows there were would have been a problem from the bridge in the background, so I made use of the footpath crossing just to the south, which is in the clear.
