8623 Viaduct Terrais, - Compeyre 15.09.08
Multiservices liveried 8623, passes over the Viaduc de Compeyre a few miles north of Millau with service 15941, 12:40 Clermont-Ferrand to Béziers on Monday 15th September. A mad day as we flew into Béziers from Bristol in the morning, drove silly miles up to Neussargues and then chassed this service back to Millau before heading off to Toulouse for the night! The 360 miles mad dash was worth it thought as we ended up with 4-5 stunning photographs which unfortunately can't be repeated as this train service is now a Bi-Mode unit. We did miss a classic shot of the BB8500 next to the stunning Millau viaduct, but if we had managed that we would have missed this shot. Should have stayed another day in hindsight.
