37417

37417 "Highland Region" at Ribblehead station on Saturday 26th September 1992, with 1T06 14:20 Carlisle - Chester 'Five Counties Dalesman' railtour.

 

The outward (also 1T06, 06:45 Chester - Carlisle) had run direct via Helsby and the WCML to the border city, and sizable break was given to participants to enjoy the city (The Woolpack Inn to be precise, now student accommodation),

 

Then forward to Appleby for another decent break (hence the stock recessing on the Warcop Branch), for more refreshment, and forward for a half an hour stop at Ribblehead station, again for more beers at The Station Inn.

 

All this, with luxurious travel in the vintage 1959 built, former 'Motorail' Corridor First coach No.13225.
