Now this really is a RARE sight...a class 87 at London's King's Cross! This could quite possibly be the very first passenger departure by this class of loco from this station...only operating until recently out of nearby Euston. Not only that but 87006 is an interesting loco to appear on this train as it was one of the class given a trial by DRS and still retains that livery without the logos. The date of the picture is Easter Friday the 14th April 2006.
