The Fellsman 2015

How did the Scot do today. I'm guessing that it was a success since nothing has been said until this point.

 

Yes, no news is good news

 

SG back on form, powered up Wilpshire Bank in a heavy shower (7E at Ramsgreave) and then sped through Cherry Tree.

 

Not my footage but seemed bang on from 46115

 

Anyone know which loco is rostered for The Fellsman this week? TIA

 

45231 Mark

 

Would it be possible if you do a few locations tomorrow whatever is at the head of the train?

 

Depends how fast the driver(unnamed) goes

 

Sorry Mike in work tomorrow sadly . I am sure 45231 will put in a good show.

 

Thanks Henry. I'm "up north" this week on holiday - 5 steam trains on the S&C in 6 days is worth the 5 hours on the motorway!

 

Might need your pacamac on Thursday, Mark

 

Will I be able to get one at the "Apple" store.

 

2L at Hoghton with a blowing cylinder draincock - typical rubbish! Apart from the cloudless blue sky and the warm morning sun and the total absence of wind and the cool atmosphere which allowed plenty of exhaust to be seen and the fireman putting on a few rounds and a Black 5 working hard pulling 11 coaches up the bank. Joking aside, a fine spectacle on a perfect day for watching steam on the main line. Hope it continues for everyone out there today.

 

?????

Why single out Thursday for the pacamac Henry?

It is the North you are talking about.

 

Photographed it passing Lostock hall but couldn't see your face at the window as it passed !

 

Aaaaah !
