Challenge 340: Name that train

Some trains have romantic and masterful names, such as the Orient Express, the Rocket or the Flying Scotsman. So it was with some disappointment that I noticed, as I left a train the other day, that it had been given the rather prosaic name Ilford Depot.

Surely we can come up with a more magnificent title for this iron horse?

I took the photograph in a rush on my iPhone, hence the rather dodgy quality. But I'd like you to try to match the tone and feel of the original when coming up with your new name - and, of course, you'll need to pay close attention to the perspective in this one.

High res is here.

Ah the romance of the railways!

Here the royal family seem to be taking austerity measures very seriously indeed

After looking at the name Ilford Depot for a while..I started rearranging the letters and ended up with Flooded Trip...and it snowballed from there
