    VT - 5043 to Edinburgh - 26/27/28 May

    46233 did go very slowly up Shap on the northbound, although from what I heard at the lineside, it likely wasn't because of the fire risk. In...

    The East Midlander Sat 9th April.

    The East Midlander Sat 9th April.

    The East Midlander Sat 9th April.

    Wartime black livery for Flying Scotsman
