 Bowled! Sometimes it happens - the train that you have been waiting for and following on your 'phone gets blocked by another one. In this case, Avanti's Pendolino 390130 'City of Edinburgh' working to its namesake as the 9S70 12.43 from Euston has totally blocked the 4M07 09.55 Tilbury to Daventry Freightliner. If the latter had been hauled by a common or garden Class 66 that I have plenty of photographs of I would have shrugged my shoulders and not be too bothered. However, this freight was being hauled by 66302 'Endeavour' that I have precious few photographs of and none since it was named at the DRS Kingmoor Open Day in July 2019 an event that I actually attended. Despite my attendance, I failed to take a photograph of the locomotive for some unknown reason!
