70037 'Hereward the Wake' at Kirkby South Jn. My Richard Piccaver signed print copy no. 22 of 100
This photo is of my signed copy no. 22 of 100 prints by Richard Piccaver. It depicts 70037 "Hereward the Wake" hauling 3V11 the 3.30 pm Grimsby to Whitland fish train. It's about to pass under Lindley's Lane bridge, a favourite spotting location for many (including me), before plunging into the darkness of Annesley tunnel. The train was timed to pass Kirkby South Junction at 7.21 pm
It's a view I witnessed many times and, when I saw the framed print being sold at the heritage Great Central Railway at Loughborough quite a few years ago, to buy or not to buy was a no brainer!
