45061, 07.28 Derby-Paignton (1V62), Parson's Tunnel One of my favourite photographs of a Peak! It shows split head coded 45061 emerging from Parson's tunnel leading the 1V62 07.28 Derby to Paignton now covering the final few miles of its journey as it heads along the sea wall towards Teignmouth. The split headcoded examples of the Peaks were a favourite type in my eyes and I was always pleased when I captured one on film including another example (45024) dominating the home page of this website. I have always been curious about the three people standing at the top of the rather slippery and small steps on to the sea wall in this scene, they appeared to be enthusiasts but are taking no notice of the passage of this train probably uninterested due to it being hauled by a rather boring and mundane Peak on some Mk. 1 stock; what they would give for that scene today!
