    No sign of movement on RTT as yet, perhaps the weather has put them off!

    Edit - Scrub that, something is on the move!

    I believe that Mayflower is either not gauged or out of gauge for the run Hellifield, hence the change to Barrow,

    She did her last test round the traditional loop, but that must be a fair few years ago.

    More the merrier on the Furness line for me!

    There’s the same paths for tomorrow but if it’s the loaded test run I would assume the whole train would have to be dragged back by whatever is on the rear ?

    She seems to have lost nearly 15 minutes between here and Ulverston which possibly doesn't bode well.

    Perhaps not as they often tend to stop and have a check around just to see all is well.

    Mayflower 1b.jpg

    Not the best of weather conditions as an immaculately turned out and sounding well 'Mayflower' works through Dalton in Furness during its test run from
    Carnforth to Barrow in Furness, Steve Chipperfield driving, Chris Holmes firing and Roly Parker Guard.

    Nice to hear this that 61306 has run a successful light test run cos it was shedded at dairycotes hull and 56f low moor down the road where i live my dad remembers seeing it at low moor sheds in the late 60,s. The last outpost shed of B1,s in w. Yorks if ive got that correct. So it represents my area 4 1 of our prrserved locos and even better a mainline runner good luck to steam dreams 4 the next 6 and half years?

    Did you take an earlier shot coming through the bridge to give the impression of a loaded train? That might have worked
