Great photos and video footage so far, I managed to get to Newton Le Willows, Diggle and Copy Pit, a swift half of Abbot in one of my locals next to the canal in Leigh and now off to Golborne shortly. 5043 was certainly impressive at every location so far. I will sort out my vid and photos when I get back from Golborne.

And thanks for the regular updates that were sent in, at each location I had the latest info a few minutes before others except Copy Pit where a number of phones went off simultaneously so it seemed there were a few of us using the system at that location!

That is a smashing video of her at Diggle. I was going to head for Diggle first but given the popularity of the trip and parking issues at Copy Pit I thought I better get there early to ensure I have somewhere to actually park (safely).

I've uploaded my video from Copy Pit onto the website here.

 

My photo at Copy Pit is here:

Was surprised to see so many at Copy Pit. Not sure if I made the right choice for the photographs, but the site has many good view points.

Looks like another amazing performance from my favourite loco!

Great videos from Austin, Matt, Mike and 46236, thanks so much, it was almost like being there!!!

Well done and thanks once again to Bob Meanley and everyone at Vintage Trains, what a great job you do, especially with 5043.
