4930, outward leg of The Welsh Marches Express, 10.15 Crewe-Newport, Little Mill Junction SO315023
The second picture of 4930 'Hagely Hall' at Little Mill
Junction this time using my Pentax fitted with its prime lens and using FP4 film. It is passing the signal box to the left leading the 10.15 Crewe to Newport Welsh Marches Express charter that was steam-hauled (by 6000 'King George V') from Shrewsbury with the Hall taking over at Hereford. The line leading off to the right in this view once lead to Usk and Monmouth. The remaining track came to an end at the MoD facility at Glascoed that was still in use at this time back in 1981.
