Description: A black and white image of Great Western Railway engine 2857 pulling the early morning goods train through Arley station on the Severn Valley Railway early on a foggy morning. This nostalgic, almost eerie image of a goods train on a foggy morning with the station master walking up the platform has a period feel to it! 2857 was built in Swindon in 1918 and was in service until 1963. This class of engine (2800) was responsible for hauling most of the long distance heavy freight trains on the GWR / BR western region for almost 60 years!
