A tricky location to take a picture in 1996, and now probably totally impossible! With the driver checking the snaking rake of wagons behind him, 56118 eases out onto the main line at Great Heck on 17 September 1996 with the 6P68 16:50 Heck to Biggleswade Plasmor blocks. There was only a very small gap in the hedge through which to take this picture, which probably explains why I have seen so few pictures taken from this angle, although I have seen more pictures of this train taken from the other side, which of course is totally wrong for the sun. |
