The Grain catcher in the Rye - a photo on Flickriver

            On 20th December 2022, DCR’s 60028 passes Peckham Rye with 6z70, a Willesden to Grain working.

On this day I had an hour to kill before a meeting in Victoria.   Railway photography in London is tough in mid winter, with the gamble being even tougher with cloud tailing an overnight front clearing through the morning.

However, the cloud had almost cleared South East London when this blue vision appeared and I caught my one and only ‘target’ for the day.

Thanks to JD and JS for guidance on this, and as you predicted, the shadow does partially cover the train’s wheels.   All things considered, I’ll take that!

Taken with the assistance of a pole.
