It's not quite an A4, a Deltic or even an IC225 but one cannot really argue that 801222 makes a fine sight as it tears past Sandy's New Zealand bridge working the 05.48 Edinburgh Waverley to King's Cross 1E02 service. Using my zoom lens on the Canon 5D I had to use 1:4000/sec. shutter speed to 'freeze' the action. Close examination reveals that this was successful with the drillings in the wheel brake discs even appearing to be sharp, modern camera technology can be superb!
