class 87 loco at Heaton Norris Junction

class 87 loco at Heaton Norris Junction - 29th June, 1977
An early example of the tried and tested method of 'wrapping camera strap around wrist and hoping for the best', used as recently as April this year in New Zealand where it was literally a 'breath of fresh air' to be able to lean out of a train or be on an outside platform of a train - a long forgotten pleasure on the mainlines of this Health and Safety ridden country!
