30777 (777) SSEx York station UK. 17 July 1984
For the 4th time that day, preserved ex-SR 'King Arthur' class 4-6-0 No.777 (BR No.30777) 'Sir Lamiel' draws the weekly 'Scarborough Spa Express' special to a stand in York station, arriving from Leeds via Harrogate and Knaresborough in the fading evening light. Photo 7 of 7
I originally uploaded only 6 of this series of 7 photos taken on this special train, as this one is less sharp...but that's because the evening light was so weak under the station roof: I think the splendid roof lines plus reflections off the centre road lines (now lifted) make the photo worth including. See below for link to photo 6 and adjacent ones.
