ex-LMS 5000
Title:  ex-LMS 5000
Description:  I took this at the National Railway Museum of Britain in York, and the locomotive is the very first of the famous LMS "Black Five" 5P5F Class 4-6-0s. Although some others had lower numbers, like 4767 downloaded right before this, the first Black Five does nevertheless carry the number 5000. Here it's displayed coupled to a period version of the Royal Train, as it would be configured to pull it.

ex-LMS 5690 "Leander"
Title:  ex-LMS 5690 "Leander"
Description:  I had caught up to the then-newly-restored LMS Jubilee Class "Leander" at the Return of the Legends train show at Crewe works earlier in 2003, but I only shot Kodachromes then. These shots, while quite brillant in color quality, were actually shot with Jessops Diamond 200, if I'm not mistaken. I got the film for free whenever I developed film with Jessops, so by late 2003 I was shooting quite a bit of it. All of these shots were on the East Lancashire Railway, where Leander eventually ended up in excursion service.

ex-LMS 5690 "Leander" Cab
Title:  ex-LMS 5690 "Leander" Cab
Description:  Here's a nice interior shot of the cab. This was one of my favorites from the East Lancs, as I really liked how the fire came out.
