Robin Hood Line Storyboard_38

On 8 June 2002 60009 "Union of South Africa" made an appearance on the Robin Hood Line by joining at Kirkby Lane End Junction having travelled up the climb from Pye Bridge with the Past Time Rail Tour "The Robin Hood Express".

 

I like the part when the first chime whistle from the engine seems to immediately provoke an answer from a bird!

 

The driver cleverly uses a trick to effectively "shoo" away two lads from the embankment.
