    If I might make a suggestion regarding this site so that you don't upset the local farming fraternity by blocking the narrow lane is to park at the end of the lane or on the side of the main road further up on your left and walk up the lane to the gate on your right for access to the field

    Or you could always park in Settle and walk up the hill from the market place...............ten minutes as the pig flies!

    Afterwards coffee in Settle at "Ye Olde Naked Man Cafe".

    (no connection with "Ye Olde Miserable Man Cafe" in Kirkby Stephen)

    Nope - simply saying that if our younger members are showing unacceptable behaviour patterns they may be following the example of our older members so it may be worth our older members looking to the example(s) they set.

    Thu Hoghton on time in drizzle. More smoke from the rear loco than front and the train galloping along.

    Nice one, Stephen. Sounds as though 48151 was doing a large share of the work, there.

    I always wondered why you occasionally see a person staring out the cab of an attached diesel:)

    If (as appears from the video) the diesel wasn't even propelling itself, then that was a pretty heavy train, though perhaps not as heavy as the freight trains that Class 8Fs would have taken over the S&C. How heavy would those have been?
