Hope you enjoy.

 

In York at the moment. Held at Colton jnc then slow approach into station.

 

Off York.

 

Arrived Scarborough two minutes to the good. Sun has just gone in too.

 

Ralph, confirmed as 46233 is on the CME tomorrow.

 

Sunny day but too warm for any exhaust, still the Duchess looks as impressive as ever, seen here at Haxby, just north of York and the outward and reurn trip. Two weeks for me now, I'm off in search of sea wall action on holiday with the kids

Nice footage Phil. Brought a tear to the eye -- the bridge in the background is where I used to 'spot' from as a kid!

 

Had a superb day out. Some late running, outward die to being put behind stopper down the Calder Valley and just knock on effect thereafter. Arrived two minutes early into Scarborough. On time departure on the return, lost time at Milford waterstop so a late arrival into Brighouse. Would like to thank RTC, WCRC and PMRT for a great day out. 46233 performed as expected, 100% LMS!
60009 next week....

is 60009 confirmed for Friday?

Thanks

Today's lineside rumour mill has it as 60009, despite other previous thread statements of it being banned twixt York and Scarborough.

 

60009 according to the letter with my ticket received today ( I only booked yesterday), and 46233 for CME ditto.

 

Neil, was informed by our rtc steward last week that 60009 was booked for this week's flyer. However a week is a long time in this game!

 

We'll have to ask Ralph nicely again..............

 

Hi Ralph, asking nicely are you checking out Crewe today for tomorrows flyer

Cheers
