- Steamy End to the Days before Christmas.
Black 5 45407, 47s, 66s and more
A Carlisle Train Variety!
23 24 December 24
The 23rd was a really miserable day weatherwise, putting a stop to my venturing out beyond carlisle Station
I;d expected the last two days before Christmas to be relatively quiet on the train front but Monday's Engineer's train brought out some interesting equipment and we had the Yuletide Logs!
The 24th proved equally dark - platform lights were on more often than not in the middle of the day! The highlight was the stock from Edinburgh's Polar Express charters returning to Carnforth - Black 5 45407 The Lancashire Fusilier topped and tailed by Class 47s and BR Blue and grey Mark 2s, ex Riviera trains.

Lovely get-away by the 47 at the end. Thanks Leslie all the best.
@@2010ditta and to you Tim
Thanks for sharing. See you in the new year. Stay safe.
Thanks Mike, I hope so!
Nice to end the year with a bit of steam action even though they put the box up front
yes they seem to when there are a couple to be moved beside the steam
@@LeslieGilpinRailways Most times they do yes but unusually for Tangmere heading back a few days ago she led the way.
You kept the best till the last.
A Black 5 is always a welcome sight.
All the best for the New Year Leslie.

@@allan5919 thanks
Lovely mixture there Les!
Brilliant video as always Les!
@@Tristan_303 thanks
What a pity they didn't put the Fusilier up front doing the work. Ah well - a very welcome end of year filming opportunity.
It was. The could have run the steam first - and they could have Polar Express vinyls on both sides of the tender! Just shows the economy pf running a circular service!
Great video @LeslieGilpinRailways & hope you had a great Christmas
@@Jordan-Hunter98 thanks
