British Rail - D844 at Derby Station
This is one of the rarest photographs I have taken. Class 43 Warship D844 'Spartan' at Derby.
Thanks to information provided some years ago now by Flickr member D864Zambesi.
D844 had worked a 1Z94 11:50 Plymouth to Derby Relief from Exeter, all the way through to Derby. It was a rather gloomy summers afternoon so lighting conditions were not great for my fixed lens camera. The locomotive was in a rather patchy maroon livery. The date of the photograph was 14th August 1970. The train later worked back I believe with a Derby to Bristol Temple Meads Relief Working.
