34046 Braunton roars past Andover with the London to Bath Christmas Market! 28th November 2023

Went out yesterday to capture and see a Bulleid Pacific on the mainline for the first time and oh boy was it absolutely glorious! 34046 Braunton from the SR West Country and Battle of Britain Class billowing lots of steam and smoke as it powers past Platform 2 at Andover Station with the Steam Dreams: London to Bath Christmas Market Train!
I had initially thought of capturing it passing through from Platform 1, but decided otherwise to not risk my view being obscured by another train, which turned out to be a wise choice, as another train pulled up just as Braunton began to appear in the distance!

Nice Capture. I never knew you liked Steam Trains, been subscribed to you when you did the NR2003 big ones
