circa 2004
901001 (977391 + 999602 + 977392) at Stratford-upon-Avon circa 2004. I remember that the train standing alongside the test unit, 166201, should have been in platform 3 and its presence in P2 really mucked up the chances of a decent shot. I almost gave up the post-scanning processing because of the intensity of the lights needed for the train's video cameras but after about 45 minutes work in Photoshop CS2 arrived at this image.
