37710 Goole (Potters Grange Junction) 5 May 1997

In miserable light, 37710 passes Potters Grange Junction, Goole on 5 May 1997 with the 6V14 08:35 Hull Saltend to Baglan Bay acetic acid tanks. The brightness of the marker lights gives some idea of how poor the condition were. A head on viewpoint was chosen not only to allow a slower shutter speed (no real choice in these weather conditions!), but also to include Goole's landmark water towers on the right. A totally unrepeatable view, as not only do the 'vinegar tanks' no longer run, but the field on the right has been built on. A line of newly planted trees can just be seen in this view, which now separates the railway from the new industrial estate.
