In the video I forgot to identify the 37s - 37685 and 37688! One had been intended to run along the Tyne Valley line but failed for some reason. The other 37 had come to rescue it - that occured on Sunday 29th.
45212 had arrived from Fort William by 3am on the Saturday morning,
The Northern Belle stock weere going to be stabled at Aberdeen Ferryhill overnight before working a Dyce to Dunrobin Sunday excursion - too early a start apparently for Aberdeen station to be open!
After the problems on the WCML around Beattock on Thursday, the intermodal operators were still clearing thir boxes for the south. Hence slightly longer and later trains.
With the ECML being subject to Engineering possessions this weekend, apparently for Drain clearing and other works, the North Blyth to Fort William Alcan tanks worked via Carlisle - and the hilly route over Beattock.
Like last Saturday when Tangmere proved to be naughty, this was a very busy Saturday!

I presume the LNER Eidburgh trains switched back to electric power at Carlisle after coming off the Newcastle-Carlisle diversion?
One of the many, many advantages of watching your videos is the close-ups that can be obtained of loco buffer beams (eg, the 33s), which are great for modellers
Great video Les thank you. A good mixture
Excellent and interesting video.
Looks like a West Coast company day out, Carlisle. Did not expect to see the Fort William Alumina train. Now that is the long way round for such a long train. First freight train, aviation fuel, and those are bigger tank wagons then the Swiss/ Germans use.
The Alcan was diverted like the LNER trains - engineering work north of Newcastle. I think those tanks are bigger than the american equivalents too
That is what i call excessive steam !
It is like a scene from "The Railway Children" that left their father the only person
on the platform.
Plenty of other action, Carlisle is still a great place for enthusiats.
A freind who'd been standing on P4 said they didnt see the loco until it was going round the curve towards Currock. Carlisle was pleasantly busy for a change
@@LeslieGilpinRailways It would certainly make for a great halloween video.Carlisle has done well this year for rare sightings.
Fantastic les
Thanks glad you enjoyed it
