HBM Great Central Railway Leicester 6th August 2024

These days most GCR passenger trains layover at Leicester North for an extra 15minutes to give passengers the chance to visit the footplate as we sit in the headshunt.

I took the opportunity to grab a shot of our loco, BR Standard 2 2-6-0 78018, from the little (& little used) platform 1.

HBM to everyone, Enjoy the start of the new week.

This is a delight Pete. A pretty engine and I like the longer view in this image. Nice to see the effort that has gone into making this station looks so attractive.

HBM and have a good week ahead
