50008 - Battledown

With a rapidly approaching down Freightliner causing a quick shift to the section between the two foot crossings, 50008 "Thunderer" is in fine form as it races up the gradient towards Battledown Flyover.

 

The working was 5Z50 Eastleigh Arlington to Westbury via Swindon & Melksham, seen running around an hour late due to a last minute fault with the 'Hoover'.

 

Not the shot that I wanted to get but with 15 seconds between this and the Freightliner, it was better than the risk of getting bowled!
