Returning to Base

After a landslide at Beattock caused all four sleeper services to be cancelled, the empty stock needed to be returned to its respective bases. GB Railfreight Class 92, 92010 leads the ECS from the Down Lowlander (1S26) back through Hartford on its way to Wembley running as 5M11.

 

The service had got as far as Preston before having to detrain its passengers (who were allowed to stay on until a more sociable hour) and then return back south after running the loco around.

 

Locomotive Services Limited's Class 47, 47805 / D1935 "Roger Hosking MA 1925-2013" disappears in a cloud of smoke on the left on the rear of Saphos Trains' The Christmas White Rose tour to York.

 

5M11 full consist:

92010 + CS08 (15001 15109 15210 15337 15338 15329 15330 15303) + CS05 (15004 15103 15205 15326 15316 15307 15312 15214).
