Holyhead arrival (624-6)
47433 arrives at Holyhead with the 13.00 departure from London Euston and descends the 1:75 slope towards the station.. On the left 08746 waits to follow the train down to remove the empty stock from the platform.Quite a few changes have taken place since 1982. On the right the short siding remains but the rest of the railway infrastructure had to make way for the A55 Expressway. The two bridges , which carry a footpath, have been replaced by a new structure which straddles the new road and the railway. In the background the large factory has been demolished and the site cleared and redeveloped. ( I'd be interested to hear if anyone knows anything about this factory!) On the left the old steam shed has gone and been replaced by a new servicing structure.
