37518 Heap Bridge (M66) 3 July 2011

37518 crosses the M66 motorway at Heap Bridge on 3 July 2011 as it works the 2J71 11:15 Heywood to Rawtenstall service, during the East Lancashire Railway's Diesel Gala. Although this was only a last minute decision to take this picture, I think the composition works really well. The unexpected sight of a Class 37 above the road traffic makes for an interesting picture, although a few less lamp posts in the foreground would have improved things!
