Contrasts
45596 climbed away from Carmont Box with 1Z29, the 16:36 'Great Britain XV' from Aberdeen to Edinburgh, contrasting with 170396, scurrying northwards with 1A87, the 15:30 from Edinburgh to Aberdeen, on the afternoon of 19 April 2023.The presence of the DMU would irritate some but, even without it, there's no disguising the fact that 'Bahamas' is working a special and it's not a picture taken in the early '60s. Apart from the MkII coach behind the tender and the chocolate and cream stock further back, the modern buildings and vehicles in the background give the game away.
