55017 'The Durham Light Infantry' arrives into the daylight at King's Cross station emerging from Gasworks tunnel. It is leading the 1A18 12.34 from Hull that has taken just over three hours to reach London. By this stage in 1981 inner suburban electrification was complete but I avoided taking any images of the now-classic Class 313 electrics that ran on the lines; a schoolboy error but one predicated by having to count the cost of every Kodachrome 64 transparency exposed!
