43102 Raskelf 26 November 2001

Golden autumnal lighting at Raskelf on 26 November 2001. 43102 heads south along the East Coast Mainline with the 1V60 13:43 Newcastle to Exeter St Davids Virgin CrossCountry service. By virtue of it being the world's fastest diesel locomotive, two decades later 43102 would end up preserved not far north of here, at Shildon's Locomotion museum.
