Description
As 60007 Sir Nigel Gresley approached Doncaster, everybody raised their phones and cameras as if it was synchronzed, and froze until the iconic A4 had sped pass.
But we start at Peterborough as the Saphos tour to York, under diesel locomotive class 47 593 Galloway Princess, enters platform 4, before being uncoupled and rested in the shunt spur.
By now the expectant crowd had swelled in anticipation of the legend 60007 as she crept towards her waiting fan club.
Once in situ the Locomotive Services owned icon duly accelerated with her rake of vintage coaches just as Stanier Black 5 44871 entered with the West Coast edition to the same Yorkshire City.
We then move on to Doncaster, where, just as at Peterborough, platforms 3 and 4 started to swell with rail enthusiasts and curious bystanders. She didnt disappoint, as she stormed through at speed.
