View NW from the same bridge as in Image] and my other photographs at this site. This train is on the Up Fast line, but is headed by No. 48765, another of the LMS Stanier 8F 2-8-0s built by the LNER at Doncaster Works (2/46) under wartime order and used by the LNER as their No. 3560 then 3160, until 10/47 when it was handed over to the LMSR; it was withdrawn as No. 48765 from Lostock Hall Shed in 8/68, so was one of the very last regular steam locomotives on BR.
