I was almost caught napping here taking this photograph! I was expecting the 08.20 Crewe HS to Southall Locomotive Services empty coaching stock to be making fairly leisurely progress up through Roade cutting but when it appeared, amidst clouds of exhaust, it was really moving so I had to rapidly adjust the shutter speed from 1600th to 2000th second. 47593 'Galloway Princess' leads 47614 (not powered) making a fine sight hauling a set of blood and custard preserved stock.
