Apparently running an hour late off carnforth?

 

Through Keighley at 13:20 ish

 

Dep Carnforth on time. No diesel, so presumably no diesel on the tour tomorrow? Pic of today's move here:

Does anyone know the times for 46115's move to Southall (If that is where it is stabling) after the tour?

 

This was at Long Preston in full dull.

What's the camera you are using,Stu?

Superb quality.10/10.

 

Thanks, the camera's a Canon 1D MkIII and if you click the "i" button at the top left on my website it should reveal all the details below the photographs.

Thanks Ralph, it's just frustrating after listening to all the sun forecasters this morning, why do they lie! :mmph:

The Scot just looks so much prettier in full sun as well...................maybe tomorrow.

 

nice to be proved wrong, sadly did not get to see her

 

A quick shot from today of 46115 taking the ECS from Carnforth to York seen passing Halton near Leeds. Many thanks to John for capturing the action whilst I finished packing and returned back to Leeds till October...

The video clip will be available next Wednesday on the 'Part 3' DVD.

Shot available here

 

Passed Barkston Ash a few minutes early this morning.

I've uploaded a photo with the video clip available on the 'Part 3' DVD.

Available Here

 

Reported 17 late at Peterborough

Anybody know why the generator car was in use today? I wouldn't have thought the temperatures required it (!), and it was very audible. It actually sounded like 46115 was double-heading with a diesel when the train was approaching us.
