16th Dec: LMS Class 5MT 4-6-0 Black 5 #44871 and #45407 THE CATHEDRALS EXPRESS from Victoria to Yeovil Jn 1Z82 Three Bridges-Balcombe. Another wet, windy and dark December morning, Black Fives blasting away from Three Bridges and heading up to the Balcombe Tunnel. Unfortunately sudden gust blew down the exhaust and I was slightly in the panic mode to take the shot before the train engine was possibly obscured !
