    I'm sure the Marches would be the logical route though, as 44871 and 70013 did it when positioning for GB3?

    RalphW, Firstly, My apologies for not putting this in the correct thread.

    I managed to get a few shots at Hatton north. Not the best of shots I will admit. The weather just wasn't playing ball!

    http://rickeborallphotography.fotopic.net/ to see the results

    Cheers....RICK

    Hey Rick no apologies please, we all sometimes don't notice that there is a similar thread running somewhere else. Just keep taking the excellent photos. I see on the last one of 44871 on the Lickey, there's only the driver who has not got his head out your side to get his picture taken...

    Saturday 3rd July will see the Dukes return to the mainline hauling HF Railtours Cumbrian Coast Explorer from Crewe to Carlisle via Maryport and returning via Settle. This should give 71000 chance to stretch her legs and it will be good to see her over Ais Gill again.
