Spaceship at sunset
Class 9F 2-10-0 steam locomotive 92214 on the Severn Valley Railway, SVR. The Swindon-built, ex-British Railways engine was visiting the Severn Valley Railway from the Great Central Railway in Leicestershire. It is pictured here with the 3.26 p.m. Santa Special from Arley to Kidderminster in Worcestershire just after sunset on Sunday December 7th 2014. The train has just left Bewdley and is heading up towards Kidderminster Tunnel, close to the West Midland Safari Park. Just before the train arrived there had been a flurry of vapour trails in the sky but most had quickly disappeared just in time. There were quite a few photographers gathered here as the thermometer dropped to around zero. This was the first weekend of operation at the SVR for the 9F - known to some as a Spaceship - which was visiting the railway to help out with the intensive running of Santa trains until January.
