I had planned to photograph some 'Javelins' at other locations during our 4 day break, but the weather, coupled with other arrangements dictated a limit of a only a couple hours on the final day. As such, I decided to stay put for another attempt here at Ramsgate, as I wasn`t totally happy with the first one I got here. This shot is of 395023 departing with the 14:05 to London St.Pancras. I prefer this shot, and it`s also departing a different platform. 22nd February 2011.
