Description
©Gill Billington. All rights reserved. Full steam ahead! shouted the guard as this old pannier steam train 6430 pulled out of North Weald station. The train rails started to vibrate, even felt on the sleepers and rocks beside the track as this vintage machine thundered past, heading towards Epping Forest. Steam was flowing over the wheels, the fire in the engine was stoked and clouds of smoke billowed from the funnel, making the sky above look dark and ominous.
Together with this and the low angle of view it made a very dramatic scene enhanced by the fact that it was produced in black and white with just the red of the metal bumper color popped.
