Too wet & grim for even me to go through the door to catch it on the way back tonight. My offering of 45231 leaving Blackburn this morning here

Hi all. Does anybody know what's hauling tomorrow's final Fellsman? I presume it's 48151.

 

Hi David, 45231 was in steam this afternoon at Carnforth so that looks most likely to be on the front . Steve

 

Many thanks Steve. Not that I'm complaining, but whenever I got out these days it always seems to be a Black 5!!

Hope you enjoy.

 

Tried a new location for me on the return leg - Trying to capture it bursting out of Wilpshire tunnel - what a sound and sight !! The exhaust took ages to clear . It was very gloomy and even at iso 1000 it was about 1/15 sec and the first couple of shots at long range came out too blurred to use. Will try this again with better conditions.

piccys here plus passing through Whalley station this morning here - http://www.steamingnorth.com/displayimage.php?album=127&pid=4163#top_display_media

Bee Lane Preston, Hellifield Green, Hellifield, Settle Junction and Ribblehead all on the outward leg.

A bit long and some of the locations weren't as good as I'd hoped but you have to try something different.
