56301 at Totton (3) - 2 July 2014

Following my observations on Lovers Walk, I decided to find out how people had got pictures of Totton Yard. My previous visits had revealed nothing. Today, careful map reading, well chosen parking and a lot of walking allowed me to take my own photographs from public locations.

Two DCR Class 56s accompanied a ballast train at the yard. Ex-Fastline 56301 was in clear view but 56311 was partially obscured by a truck when viewed from the Junction Road footbridge. This view is from the Brokenford Lane footbridge.
