Having seen 55016 'Gordon Highlander' enter Doncaster station a little earlier Graham and I must have leapt into the Austin 1100 and raced to the south of the station to St. James' bridge to secure a second photograph. With the tower of Doncaster Minster in the background, the station is seen to the top left with just a DMU waiting at a platform. Unfortunately, the low winter sunshine and my ineptitude have meant that the lower nose of the Deltic is in the shade as it weaves away from the station with the 1A18 Hull to King's Cross. Notice the Mk. I Ford Capri complete with a vinyl roof parked in the background next to a green Vauxhall Chevette and some BR Dodge Spacevans (formally Comma vans).
