Now if i had just gone home with this in the can, i would have been a very happy bunny!!! However, this picture does not tell the whole story. A mass panic ensued when a Class 158 was brought to a stand at the signal, totally blocking everyone's view. A stampede to other parts of the bridge then took place when the Grid started away from Mexborough station but it was only moving forward to allow the Guards carriage to be accommodated on the platform at Mexborough where a crew change took place. The signal cleared and the 158 moved off then the Grid thrashed away towards the re-assembled Gallery. I held my nerve and waited in position and had a front row seat to record 56081 heading the 1Z58 Barrow Hill-Spring Bank South Jn.
