My first line side photography trip out in a couple of months took me up to Atherstone, a short drive up the A5 from home, main reason being was LMS Jubilee Class 45596 Bahamas was working from the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway to the Mid-Hants Railway via the West Coast Mainline, a nice surprise also was 68034 working 6Z76 Crewe Basford Hall - Stud Farm empty ballast boxes. As the weather was dickying about, mostly raining, I only stayed for an hour or so as there was also some other freights in the area which required my attention.
