'Roo' with a view
27th February 2008

Kangaroo Spinney, Wellingborough, offers a good shot for northbound workings in the afternoon. Unfortunately this location often proved troublesome with the local gypsies. However, their permanant site next to the line has now been demolished, so I thought it safe enough to do some investigating! Unfortunately, just as the sun was right, and there were three freights already overdue, I had business to attend to and had to leave.
