Simply gorgeous first picture of 2743 - looks to be heading south passing Greenwood box, exiting the double track 'bottle neck', a popular pre-war photographic spot. Thanks for sharing.

LNER4479, you are spot on with the location. The leading strenghener looks interesting too.

I shall see what 'suncalc' comes up with as to the time of day.

A mid to late 1930s shot?
