47826, outward leg of 'The Well-Dressed Queen and the Buxton Bush', 06.48 London Euston-Buxton (1Z86, 26L), site of Roade station
Unfortunately, I cocked up the framing of this photograph at
Roade showing 47826 leading the curiously named 'The Well-Dressed Queen and the Buxton Bush' charter. I have a bit of a problem standing on this bridge trying to frame the leading locomotive between the masts but at the same time without cropping the rear never knowing how long the train is actually going to be! The charter left Euston at 06.48 arriving at Buxton a little late. Notice that the sky has already started to cloud up even half an hour from the first photograph that I took which was in bright sunshine.
