- Steam Diesel and Electric Charters and Stock Moves around Cumbria. Les Ross, Tangmere 01 02 June 24
My book on the railway around Morecambe Bay - The Ulverstone & Lancaster Railway - should still be available from cumbrianrailwa...
On 1st June I had a meeting in Carnforth so had to fit in recording The Cumbrian Coast Express around this.
Fortunately Tangmere and its support loco headed to Carlisle quite early so I filmed it approaching Tebay. It was scheduled to stop there but didn't.
At Carnforth Station I caught the Cumbrian Coast Express behind Class 86 Les Ross / Peter Pan heading to Carlisle.
After my meeting I had plenty of time to get to Arnside to see Tangmere and the Cumbrian Coast Express at speed skirting the River Kent Estuary on Morecambe Bay. Hard to pan and keep steady with the loco but I think it works.
Finally at Hest Bank I caught Les Ross returning the Cumbrian Coast Express to London.
A few other trains were caught as well.
On 2nd June we had the surprise of The Belmond British Pullman train running empty (though apparently with its on-board crew) to E G Steele at Hamilton. After laying over overnight, it will proceed the following day to Edinburgh, work and excursion to Gleneagles with the trAin running empty back to Stewart's Lane

Great long view of Tangmere and very good advice about trying to walk over the sands Les Ross at speed was good to see too
Glad you enjoyed it. Being brought up on the shores of Morecambe Bay it was drummed into us from an early age
Beautiful scenery, outstanding catches. Thanks for sharing. Dave
Many thanks!
Thanks Les what an interesting mix with great scenery.Loved the long shots of Tangmere at Arnside
Thanks!
The Arnside clip is excellent! Great video, thanks
Thanks it's a great spot
I live by the line on the Grange over Sands side of the bay. That view you filmed along and into Arnside is superb.
I always enjoy the views from both Arnside and Grange especially of the railway
you always have the best railway videos
Thanks
superb video Les some excellent footage there matey loved the zoom shot of the kettle going over Kent Viaduct really good also the very interesting clip of the West Coast "scrapyard" and wow that Fragonset 47 brought back some great memories many thanks Les for sharing loved it stay safe a t b syd👍
Thanks!
Fantastic Video. Well Done.
Glad you enjoyed it
Les, once again you got the video spot on, with lovely locations. Well done.
Thank you
Very nice. Some interesting locations there which I haven't seen before. Busy week ahead!
Certainly looks busy. Thanks Tim
Always interesting Leslie.
Thanks
Excellent Leslie. Sad to see the 47's like that at Carnforth, they must have been there years. Lovely shots of Tangmere as well. Oh..and the 'liner. All the best.
Glad you enjoyed it Tim. Yes all have donated their useful parts to keep others running. They also provide a frustrating barrier around the site!
Spot on Les, a nice variety of traction over the two days with plenty of running around for you, some different locations which worked very well and the sad sight at Carnforth once you become a parts donor, cheers 👍
Thanks Nige I was lucky to get out to Arnside always a favourite spot
Wow Les you got some great footage there my friend
Thanks Digger
Great video 👍🏻👋🏻🤗🥰👌😍🚂🚅🚈🚂
Thanks
Brilliant video Leslie
Thanks
I have your Ulverston-Lancaster book as well as North Lancs and Cumbria ones. Happy memories.I even saw a Claughton as well as filthy Princess Coronation Streamliners on my trips to Hest Bank from my home at Skipton in the late 1940's. Love your scenes around Carlisle but not quite the same with no Canal A3's.
Now you are making me jealous! When Flying Scotsman is there - just imagine its one of Canal's best!
I watched it go over Arnside bridge on the Arnside webcam there was quite a few on the small pier waiting for it
Yes all waiting for the train. I would have gone there but it would be too noisy
That's a handy bridge at Tebay. Ooops, looks like somebody threw some coal on the fire. Some good passing action at Carnforth. A couple of reminders from back when. What ever happened to those two enterprises? Another useful viewpoint at Hest Bank.
Thanks
Wonderful video. L9ved the children runing to see Tangemere at Arnside. Thank you for sharing. Is your book still in print?
Thanks. it was great seeing so many people at Arnside. The link to the book publisher is now in the video description!
Ótima video excelente video super link 1:55

Many thanks!
Some clumsy firing!
In summer they always make smoke at points where there'll be photographers - in lieu of visible steam.
😎🌞👏
Thanks
It does not seem right. Steam loco's on air cons.
All that West coast have available
