Paragon Vista
Thought this one might be of interest to a number of people, although sadly it's not one of mine.
During the rebuilding of the Paragon Station roof between 1979 and 1981, BR photographers took a number of photos of the works in progress. I acquired official copies of many of them back in the late '80s and this one is a scan from the original print.
Seen from the edge of the main roof span, the new canopy gleams in the sun as 55018 BALLYMOSS waits to leave with 1A18 12:45 Hull - King's Cross on 21st May 1981. Station Pilot 03112 can also be seen in amongst the large amount of coaching stock in the sidings.
