56051 Portbury Dock 11 January 2003

56051 brings up the rear of the Pathfinder Tours 1Z56 06:02 Doncaster to Bristol Temple Meads 'MoD and Docker' railtour, as it approaches Portbury Dock on 11 January 2003. 56072 is at the other end of the train. The River Avon can be seen in the middle distance, with the houses and blocks of flats in Shirehampton forming the background. This is only a 35mm transparency, but on the high-res version a heron can clearly be seen sitting on the fence post on the left of the picture, just above the train.
