Class 121 DMU at Hatton Bank

Details

A lineside fire in Hatton cutting had just about been extinguished on 15 April 1987 as 55034 went south on the up line with a Stratford-upon-Avon to Leamington Spa train. I don't know what caused the fire but assume that either it had spread from nearby farmland or been caused by 35028 Clan Line which had worked from Stratford to London Marylebone a couple of days previously. There was a BR man on lookout duties on the down side of the line and he was quite happy for me to join him for a couple of photos with access at the time being easy from an unfenced section of a field at the cutting top.
