"The Mask"! GWR IET no. 800321 is working the 1C85 14.33 London Paddington to Exeter St. Davids, passing Wick at 16.24. I selected this photo from a sequence of shots of this train approaching as it clearly shows a rook dashing across the track few seconds ahead of the train passing by! The lucky bird made it!
