89001 'Avocet' leads 82139 'My Lovely Horse' & 86101 'Sir William A Stanier FRS' at Beckfoot (5Z32)

89001 'Avocet' leads 82139 'My Lovely Horse' & 86101 'Sir William A Stanier FRS' past Beckfoot working 5Z32 13:24 Tebay - Crewe H.S.

This was a loaded test run for the 89, which was performing well past us at Beckfoot. The outward leg was running late due to OHLE damage at Leyland the previous day which had delayed numerous freight workings alongside the usual Avanti/TPE/Northern services.

Having arrived late and then ran round the train at Tebay, it was a waiting game for us and the onboard crew while a path became available to return south.
