EWS Class 66005 Strikes A Colourful Pose









While carrying out some night photography at Wellingborough railway station - trying to record some of its interesting architecture, I happened to be at one point in the evening's activities at the northern end of the station taking the opportunity to photograph East Midlands Trains DMU Class 222 222002 in September 2016.









night photos of the station when, lo and behold, DMU Class 222002 pulled out and there stood diesel locomotive Knowing I had no chance of taking a night photo of a moving Class 66 locomotive using a long exposure, I was satisfied to simply jot down the number, pick up my tripod/camera and go back to takingof the station when, lo and behold,Class 222002 pulled out and there stood Class 66 66005 - one of 455 in operation - in a perfect pose.





I hoped and prayed that it would not move before I had a chance to set up the camera again and hit the shutter button.









Class 66005 diesel locomotive was built in August 1988 and allocated to Toton TMD (Notts.),
