This was one not to miss, Derby – Kidderminster SVR. The 97s were to have some test runs on the SVR. I was only expecting a 31 and the 97s but checking for posted sightings of the train it was mentioned that the 97s were top and tailing the other 3 locos. Fortunately it was a few minutes late and the stopping train had already left leaving me a clear shot of the convoy. Oh, but it was pouring with rain though!
