Black 5 44871 out on the main line.

[45669]

Black 5 44871 worked a charter train from London Victoria to Bath Spa today so I went to film it at Winchfield which is between Farnborough and Basingstoke. Curiously, the few photographers present were forbidden from photographing or videoing from the footbridge which is where I, and several others, would normally go. So I had to go down onto the platform to film it coming in before going up onto the road bridge to film the departure after it had taken on water from a road tanker:

Hope you like it.

TTFN,

I saw it again in the evening on its way back to London:

Night night.

The 'Black 5' was out again this morning, so so was I. The rain was just starting as it passed through Farnborough Main:

(The warm up acts are a couple of SWR trains, so don't think I've uploaded the wrong video!)

TTFN,

I turned out again for the up train and caught it speeding through Farnborough:
