Great Central Railway Loughborough Leicestershire 23rd June 2021

After taking water Stanier 8F 2-8-0 48305 slips as it pulls away from the tank north of Loughborough station. It was coming off shed to work the empty stock to Quorn for the first train of the day. I was weeding the site to make it look more presentable in preparation for passenger trains to return to this station.

HFF to everyone. Have a happy and safe weekend.

Hi Pete
I like this picture!
I am also puzzled as to why all the vegetation has gone a very dead looking shade of light brown.
Best Wishes, HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!
