LIBERTA (9370094), Antigua and Barbuda, 9556gt, completed Jiangyin 11-2007

This is where the "sort of ... 15 sightings" comes in!
While Stan was lying in wait at Hartlepool, I was at the South Gare and seeing that I could get a full frame view at maximum optical zoom (x28.7!), I thought I would give it a go! Don't know why I bothered, in view of heat (yes, yes!) distortion. But, added to my personal sightings she is. Also nice to see the Peter Dohle funnel colours still going strong.
