Out of the shadow's Paddington 1975.
I had come up from Birmingham at 06:48 with 86235 and spent this Summer Saturday photographing at Paddington, 09:00 to 17;00 it was a fine sunny day and as usual there was plenty of loco's to see, but of course I had come here for the Westerns, ten were seen here that day, 1005/26/30/40/48/49/53/54/56/59/67, along with, 31231/291/412/415. 47001/28//30/60/75/88/98/124/132/166/191/198/252/257/464/465/477/479/485/490/491/493/494/485/497/599. 50003/4/19/24/27/37/38/48/49. Here I am up the fire escape of the parcels depot pointing my camera down to get this picture of Class 52 1026 Western Centurion coming out of the shadow of the road bridge as it leaves Paddington with a service to Paighton, 1026 was looking quite smart as it had a recent Laira repaint she had only four months left in service. she was withdrawn in October along with 1011/25/34/52/59/69. A great day's photography at London Paddington KC. 07/06/1975.
