Miserable start - 57314
Today was the day for two WCRC 57s to have a very lengthy stretch of the legs - a 06:05 departure from Holyhead bound for Fort William! The Royal Scotsman tour draws into Llandudno Junction with ex-Arriva 57314 leading the way. It was necessary for me to shoot this capture to encompass the platform elements as this allowed me just enough light to freeze the loco with a shutter speed of 1/200th.
