    Ten minutes after brilliant sunshine and 30 seconds before the sun shone again! Sod's Law of Railway Photography.

    Taken just north of Welham Green, the comparatively new station between Hatfield and Brookmans Park. It passed at 13.12, just before a 313 departed north from the Welham Green stop, and it would have been slowed down catching up an all-stations 313, which departed 13.06.

    The time of day known as 'sparrowfart' down south.

    Nice picture, not spoilt by cat-and-canary above the track in wildest Lincolnshire.

    Stuart, amend your copyright date, It's been 2009 for two whole months!

    Thanks Ralph.
    Ah the joys of Lincolnshire where you leave school at 15 and marry your cousin.
    When I can find out how to change the bloody thing I will. ](*,)

    Very frunsting indeed, Brian. My version 1/2 further north, from a sports field on the Edge of Hatfield. I think I prefer the position I used for Tornado, though from the same field.
