Greengate Gresley

After British Railways was first formed in 1948, the original idea for the express passenger train livery was crimson and cream coaches paired with blue steam locomotives. Sadly, this very attractive combination was short lived, however today it was seen once again over the Settle & Carlisle line.

 

A4 Pacific No. 60007 'Sir Nigel Gresley' looks fantastic working hard pass Greengates with the return 'Settle & Carlisle Fellsman' charter, running as 1Z47 Carlisle - Crewe.
