Pushing The Limits
73965 led 1Q54, the 19:58 Reading to Tonbridge West Yard test train, through Earley at speed on the evening of 1 August 2024. 73963 was out of sight, attached to the rear of the train.I thought trying to capture a detailed and sharp image of a train travelling at around 50mph in the dark might be a step too far but the camera coped admirably.
