This looks to be a terrible photograph and, it is! However, I took it to remind myself of what a superb spot this used to be from Wellingborough's Irthlingborough Road bridge. For years it was the 'go to' spot for many local photographers due to its wide open and sweeping vistas, in both directions. However, the ridiculously over-engineered bridge, the palisade fencing, the electrification paraphernalia and now lineside growth (in this case buddleia) have conspired to make it worse than useless! 66093 approaches on the down slow line with the 08.58 Elsow Redland Sidings to Mountsorrel empty stone train running as 6D32.
