Under the spreading old oak tree...

A shot of the 10am from Loughborough - the GCR's first public train since 15th March 2020 - climbing the gradient from under the A46 bridge on the approach to Birstall behind 9F 2-10-0 92214.

Hi Pete

A very nice picture, which I really like.

Wonderful composition with the tree..
Last time I was there I was a little further north.. Never thought this side of the A46 would offer any possibilities...

The frame created by the oak tree and the colorful grass and flowers along the railway make for a gorgeous setting for this handsome old train! Love how you composed this, Loose_Grip!

Belated HFF!
