Saturday saw the arrival of a steam hauled special train at York railway station at lunchtime after its journey along the East Coast main line from London Kings Cross.
In this shot the locomotive was stood at platform 10, with a crowd of photographers and enthusiasts having a good look at it. I last posted a photo of this locomotive in November 2023, and gave information about some of its history then ( https://365project.org/fishers/365/2023-11-21 ).
There have been fewer steam hauled special trains in recent years, so it was pleasing to see this one, basking in the sunlight reflected off the buildings on platform 9.
Thank you all for your lovely comments and favs, they are very much appreciated.
It is really nice to have chance to see a steam locomotive in action. They almost come alive when at work. Hopefully another steam locomotive will be visiting York on Saturday, so perhaps another steam shot quite soon.
