71000 through Coventry on "The Salopian", 5th March 2011.

71000 "Duke of Gloucester" through Coventry on the 1Z72 15:10 Shrewsbury-London Euston Railtour. Other trains were being delayed in the Adderley Park Area, and it was probably the Signaller's plan to route this train through Platform 1 due to the "Beduff Tin Rocket" occupying P2, however this changed because of 1Z72 running 10 minutes behind but ahead of a late running Voyager to Banbury.

@NN2Blue It's not that good, you have to play the platform lottery and the "normals" can ruin your shot.

@AndyGautrey personally i love shots like this - steam in the 21st century, and how people react to it, is fascinating. you'll certainly never get the same shot twice, which is a bonus in my books.
