You certainly had to get up early to photograph this train! 56047 passes the north end of Hinksey Yard at 05:25 on 14 June 1983 with the 6M20 03:05 Stoke Gifford to Wolverton ARC stone train. While it was easy enough to photograph the return 6V11 empties, a determined effort was required to get a picture of the loaded train! The sun had only just risen, but luckily there were nothing shading the line at this point. The poor technical quality is because this is really stretching what you can take on Kodachrome 64. |
