A rather nice mixed freight train from Europe trails behind 92014 at Kensington Olympia.

First day with my shiny new DSLR saw me taking a trip to Olympia. In 90 mins of nearly solid rain apart from the usual EMUs there were 4 freight trains and a light engine. 66575 heads north with 4E24: 1039 Grain to Leeds container train. Needed a higher shutter speed for this one!

With the rain getting worse at Olympia 59004 heads back west with 6V18: 1243 Hither Green to Whatley Quarry empties.

Lots of signs at the end of the platform at Olympia, lots of cranes too! Photo taken 03/12/07.
