Description
It was really cool to see this pair of Class 90s at Hackney Central on their way to the Great Eastern Mainline from the West Coast Mainline amidst the overground traffic of 378s, very exciting to see these locomotives close up. The passing is quite a long one but I thought the humming of the empty carriages was really haunting and satisfying to listen to and not to be interrupted.
