It was hauled by LMS Princess Coronation Pacific No. 6233 'Duchess of Sutherland' with West Coast class 47 No. 47802 on the rear.
The sun and wind conspired to make filming difficult, so the results are somewhat disappointing, but here it is nonetheless.
The train was captured at Trowell, on the approach to Trowell Junction which is located between Toton and Ilkeston.
She was running under a yellow when first captured, which then stepped up to a double yellow allowing her to accelerate a little. A Nottingham to Leeds service joining the Erewash line at Trowell Junction just ahead of the special was the cause of the check.
