On the evening of Monday 29 August 2022, Class 66 loco no. 66077 of DB Cargo heads down the line at Flax Bourton in North Somerset. The train was 6G71, the Toton North Yard (1323hrs) to Exeter Riverside empty china clay hoppers. The low evening sun was shining straight down the tracks here, so I had to be very careful where I pointed the camera. This shot has been warmed a little, but is otherwise a faithful account of some interesting lighting conditions.
