The Great Goodbye
This image of John Wigston at work was made at the Great Goodbye event at the National Railway Museum, Shildon, North East England. The Great Goodbye was organised as part of a series of events in 2013 and 2014 to mark the 75th anniversary of Mallard setting the speed record of 126 mph (which stands to this day) for a steam locomotive in 1938. Mallard was joined by her five surviving sister locomotives for the exhibition.
