With the drags running again I decided to take a trip down to Water Orton to see them along with the Summer Special HST's and even a bit of freight. Classes seen were 57's hauling the Pendolinos on the drags, MML and GNER HST sets, a 66 and a 60. Generally the day was cloudy with a few exceptions but I feel I've managed to get some pleasing photos from a few new locations around Water Orton.

Good pics, Andrew. You keep showing me pics you've taken there, and it looks quite a hotspot for freight, must visit one weekday :)

Thanks for the compliments. It is a great location becuase of the amount of freight that runs through there but also because there are so many photographic locations very near the station aswell. If you want any info about the place just pm me and I'll try and help.
