    Looking at RTT the arrival of the Fellsman heralded a busy half hour at Preston for (assisted) steam,

    20.17 - 1Z72 (Fellsman) arrives pl4 behind 45690
    20.25 - 1Z72 departs for Lancaster
    20.28 - 5Z37 from St Philips Marsh HSTD stops in loop with 44871
    20.39 - 5Z37 departs for 10A
    20.45 - 1Z53 (The Welsh Mountaineer) arrives pl3 behind 48151
    20.48 - 5Z54 (ECS from 1Z53) departs for 10A

    And I was at home watching TV

    'The Fellsman' on the 7th August 2018 hauled by LMS 5XP No.45699 'Galatea' at Newsholme and Langcliffe. It seemed as though 45699 was doing its fair share of work at Newsholme this morning.

    Has anybody got an idea of what loco it will be on tomorrows Fellsman as im gonna be onboard. It wont be Leander as she's in York as is BIL so it's either the 8F or Galatea, hoping it's the 8F as this will be one of two final chances I have of ticking off the 8F for haulage.

    The day had dawned, dull, damp and drizzly, I made way to Chapel lane at Hoghton and at 8.57 the day suddenly brightened as Galatea rounded the curve, working hard, eleven coaches and . . . NO diesel.

    45699 near Birkett on the last Fellsman of 2018 .Problem with the Injectors on 45699 so the train is at Hellifield awaiting diesel assistance I believe .Edit . 45699 did carry on without assistance.

    I did wonder why it lost 19 minutes between Kirkby Stephen and Ribblehead, although seemed to be going OK coming off the viaduct and through Horton.
