    Job well done today by 46115 after its winter hibernation.
    First time RTC customers in the group very satisfied.
    Look forward to viewing the lineside records later.

    I'd have been a seriously pissed off if I'd driven all the way to Wigton and then some silly bint with a phone/cam caused the train to stop, ruining a decent shot! :Rage:

    Looked like a signal check. It's rare for steam tours to be halted, due to a odd trespasser ! Especially on a climb.
