33 207 'Jim Martin' on Sheepcote Lane Curve with 5Z81 09.43 Windsor & Eton Riverside - Waterloo
Moments after passing over Latchmere Junction No.3 the Crompton takes the rare curve to West London Junction on the SWML. I have only one other train on this curve which not surprisingly is a Eurostar as it was reopened specifically for them and ceased to have any booked services following the transfer of Eurostar services from Waterloo to St.Pancras.
This wasn't the shot I had in mind - but rather this: www.flickr.com/photos/tunnel_one/37288859515/
However an enormous buddleia bush now completely blocks the view since my last visit and so I had to suffice with this rather uninspiring shot instead. The sun unexpectedly coming out at the last moment wasn't exactly helpful either - especially with the dark maroon WCRC livery!
