Here she is.

Ok that’s a dreadful pic but I had to snap snappily.

PTSO or platform depending on the weather
Ah, saw it many times so glad I didn't venture out to see it. Would've preferred to see the Class 40...
Seen it many times too but was visiting relatives so just happened to be there right time

Yes the Cl.40 would have been nice

I don't really do video but the ones I took are too large for the forum server to cope with. Am I able to reduce the file size without too much loss of quality? It's only from a phone

An unusual sight at Streatham Hill - one of the less-frequent steam routes.

I think you would have to make the video about 5s long even to have a chance! Photo size allowed here is pretty small so videos are virtually impossible.115A7805 (1).jpeg

Very nice pic @Deepgreen

Mine was from a phone and during the video, the engine literally stopped steaming as it coasted through the platform to stop. Wasn't expecting to see it - otherwise, would have brought the big beastie camera
