It is being discussed in this thread http://www.railforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=31026&page=2&highlight=mallard where it states that the move is currently planned to leave the NRM at 2am, so not sure where you could go for a photo at this time of night.

Type in Raskelf to Google Maps, there are a few bridges there that look to be alright.

There is always Shipton. Both are just about a 10-15 drive from the city centre on the A19.
