6201 and 45407 this weekend

Two efforts from me this weekend.

First up, 6201 on the southbound 'Cumbrian Mountain Express' at Wharnton, south of Kirkby Stephen:

Second, 45407 on the northbound 'Waverley' on the climb to the tunnel at Blea Moor:

Weather was a bit poor as you can tell from both pictures but it was a nice weekend out and about.

 

Nice photos Neil. I was at Selside cottages this afternoon for 45407. I know the weather was poor but I was the only person there! Not many other photographers around either. Managed to chase it to Ribblehead too, so got a going away shot over the viaduct. Photos up in the morning once I'm home from work.

 

Thanks. I had a contrasting time this weekend, it was very dark at Wharnton for 6201 but on Sunday the sky white-ed out for 45407! Still enjoyable to be out even if there weren't that many around. I had a brief chat with a 'Master-Neverer' in the bar of the Station Inn at Ribblehead and with another photographer at the station itself. I've yet to meet anyone unpleasant out on the lineside this year.

 

Two photos from Sunday, Selside Cottages and Ribblehead.
