Watching the trains, London King's Cross station
Watching the trains, London King's Cross station An age-old activity at King's Cross; watching the trains! Possibly a grandfather discusses trains with his granddaughter whilst an enthusiast stands by with his camera in his hand. In the background 55004 'Queen's Own Highlander' is visible at the head of the 16.05 semi-fast to York. I have in my notes that there were numerous official notices around King's Cross station advising that trainspotters were banned from the platforms due to an injury sustained by one at an outer suburban station; can anybody shed any information on this? I can report that none of those seen in this image including myself had a visit from platform staff! Keywords: Watching the trains London King's Cross station Queen's Own Highlander 55004 Deltic
