    Lovely shots Matt, a pre nationalisation Freight is still a pretty rare beast in preservation.

    Some great shots there Matt, my favourites being the two leaving Arley northbound.

    She's quite handsome for an old freight loco really.

    Added another small collection using sepia effects to see if I could recreate that old photo look. Perhaps on hindsight I should have added a faded
    worn out look as well. Might try that next!
    See what you think!
    There's one or two shots of the Flying pig as well!
