The pre-Easter period saw the return (briefly) of the mid-week service, this time hauled by the Jinty, 47324. The weather was gloomy with a drop of the wet stuff, in other words'normal' ELR weather!  A short visit there produced a few photographs from two of the services.
The Easter Weekend saw a brief return to the High Season Timetable, and also the final appearance of Standard Four '80098', and the return of US S160 loco (5197). The Deltic, Royal Scots Grey, 55022 made a welcome return, it's always great to see this one in action, especially in bright sunshine for a change as well! After the unusually bright and sunny Easter, we again had another fantastic bit of weather on the 19th of the month, with blue skies and bright sunshine the order of the day. The steam power was provided this time by 45407 and US loco 5197, though it was a pleasant surprise to find that 45407 was travelling tender first up to Rawtenstall for a change, which meant that it was possible to photograph it from the smokestack end with the Sun behind me for a change. No such luck with 5197, but thankfully I was able to get a shot of this down at Burrs under reasonable light conditions. |
