34028 "Eddystone” “The Great Britain XVIII: Day 8” Wellingborough Neilson’s Sidings, 25th April 2026
1Z12 11:45 York to London Euston.
Passing 24 minutes late at 17:31,
but always worth the wait, as very rarely have
any steam locomotives pass on the Midland Main Line.
This is the first time I have seen "Eddystone" on this line.
