6th September 2003 - 40145 in Blue
40145's first mainline outing in BR blue. Her southbound run was in poor light, but the weather brightened up for the return which was photographed at Marston near Grantham.

12th September 2003 - Random Pendo Drag
This was the day that 55019 dragged the prototype Deltic from the NRM to Barrow Hill. There is no shot of it here, as the only time I was in position to photograph the working in sun, a HST went the other way and blocked me! So the only thing I got on this day was 47292 on a Pendo drag.
