Last one of the year 🚄

Today's 1Q34 Derby R.T.C. to Hull is formed of "Professor Plum" 43274 and Jacob's Cracker powercars 43257. Formed of Mk1s and Mk2s as I believe the actual NMT is at Leicester Depot?

After several months of catching the #BlueLaser from the #NetworkRail #NewMeasurementTrain on our all sky + auroracam, I finally saw it in person at 03:10 on Thurs am. Photos with #Canon1100D + 50mm lens from #Oxfordshire #FlyingBanana #NMT #BlueLaserTrain

Sunday is, of course, #NewMeasurementTrain day. Expecting a full banana I wasn't expecting to need to dart across the road, but I spotted the rear powercars was a "Jacob's Cracker" powercar. 43062 "John Armitt" leads 1Q17 while 43277 "Safety Task Force" brings up the rear at Tupton. #Class43
