20304 & 20301 at Crowhurst & 47712 at St Leonards, 30/12/09

Two shots from a wet 30/12/09. Seen first is 47712 departing St Leonards Depot with 5Z42 St Leonards - Hastings, the ECS to Rail Blue Charters '20s Southern Circualr' Railtour which originated at Barrow Hill, Chesterfield behind 20304/301, which are seen idling on the rear. The 20s are then seeing thrashing through Crowhurst, with 1Z42 Hastings - Barrow Hill, the return leg of the RBC charter.

Apologies for the poor quality of the last shot, it was raining.
