Royal plum 67005 working 1Q23 test train, conveying new NR DVT 82145, the train has been shuttling between Derby and Leicester for the past couple of days, and is seen on the approach to Long Eaton. Although the sun didn't quite shine it was bright enough to make the trip worthwhile...

Very nice, and good definition pictures. Wish I had a camera that could take those. I'm off out shortly to see what this Short Term Plan train turns out to be and to get a quick video 1109 Crewe C.S. (L&Nwr Site) to Blackpool North

Thanks for the kind words, and hope you got lucky!
Remember it isn't all about the camera...how you use it makes a huge difference
