Just three shots of the outward leg of the Melton Mowbray Xmas Market Express, featuring GWR Clun Castle and LMS 6233 Duchess Of Sutherland in a top and tail formation. The weather was bitter and gusty and to be honest I'd rather of been somewhere warmer but it was an interesting formation and worth half a day's work. The return leg briefly shows 6233 arriving at Coleshill Parkway and there are a few cut shots of a messy departure out of the station. The Duchess was running late and stuck in the platform for nearly 10 minutes and was blowing off from the safety valve for the entire stop and its departure. Most of the scene is unusable and unwatchable, so I have trimmed it down. Not the best day's action and the conditions didn't help. I hope you enjoy it.
