With Grand Central's plans to run trains from Euston to the north-west now heavily delayed but thankfully back on track again, the movement of two rakes of its freshly repainted stock south from Runcorn to Wembley had to be worth seeing. Many others thought the same and I have never seen so many photographers at Milton Crossing to witness the event! One was Richard Denny who produced an equally tricky photograph as we all did given that the sun dived behind a cloud some ten seconds before the train passed only to emerge again after it had disappeared around the curve into the cutting! Later in the afternoon, I took a short walk to capture two of GBRf's superb Class 47s leaving Wolverton Works for overnight stabling at Rugby.
