61306 Mayflower 'The Fellsman' Hellifield 6th August 2025

I travelled up to Hellifield again today Wednesday 6th August, this time to see 61306 Mayflower with 'The Fellsman'
The charter looked to be running on time then looked like a problem at Clitheroe, which saw a 20 min late departure meaning the train
could not get into Hellifield in time for its path to Carlise, it arrived now 30 minutes late into Hellifield and had then to wait another 20 minutes to get a path northwards,
it eventually left about 50 minutes late
Seen here waiting at Hellifield

Earlier arriving at the platform and stopping short of the signals at the platform end which was very nice for the members of the public on that platform

Rather hamfisted phone video of it leaving, i tried to use the phone and my DSLR at the same time, as i forgot my phone tripod
