Also a clip of 47815 waiting its turn to take the train back to London. Also some bonus footage of 44871 up Langho bank heading towards Blackburn courtesy of my Dad 🎥

Nice one Ian, interesting Preston shot although disappointing to be dragged back to Carnforth but a nice bonus from Langho, cheers 👍

Pity they had to put the diesel on the front for the run back to Carnforth, steam only north from Preston especially at night makes a great shot. Good to see "Dadcam" in action at Langho.

Yea we thought the same! Alas makes for a change but should've gone up shap really, like I was half thinking as would have been worth the trip! Haha yea, multi location shots now. Class 40 this weekend 👌

Nice video, but she hadn't had an Overhaul. Just Winter maintenance

[@RailwayTavern]

Thanks, yes, wasn't a full overhaul but a cracking job none the less!
