Gorstage, Hartford Junction, DB 67021 'Belmond British Pullman' (12.16 Runcorn - Crewe C.S ecs) 14/04/18.
Another instance where you think you have more time than you really have. There I was tucking into my Beef and Ale pie in Weaverham thinking I had half an hour in hand when a brief glance on my phone revealed this was on the move 21E dispensing with the pathing stop at Ditton. Jacket on, camera in hand and a sprint across the field (well quick walk/run) and as I arrived at the bridge my heart sank as 'something' diesel hauled passed through the cutting out of view. A quick check of RTT though revealed the Pullman was held at Weaver Jct, so it was back on.
Five minutes later DB 67021, getting a move on, came into view and the sun came out ... there is a God!
