51935
3rd February 1990
Set: LO350
Stratford-upon-Avon used to see a lot of day excursion traffic. This time exposure shows Longsight allocated LO350 (presumably 51935/59388/51927) + LO349 standing in platform 2 awaiting departure time before returning to Blackpool on 3 February 1990. For those interested, the exposure on 100asa transparency film was 12 seconds at f8. I always took several exposures when shooting after dark to try and ensure that there would be at least one with the correct light and shadow balance. It's much easier (and cheaper) with digital hardware! Peter Tandy.
