Mainline - Aug 2008

40 years ago the final steam train ran on British Railways, the infamous 1T57 "THE FIFTEEN GUINEA SPECIAL" running from Liverpool to Carlisle with 2 Black Fives and Oliver Cromwell. 40 years later the train was recreated with 2 different Black Fives and Oliver Cromwell.  Who'd have thought 40 years ago we'd see that!  70013, 45231 and 45407 are seen at various locations along the Settle Carlisle line.  Mixed weather and a 20 hour day didn't ruin a great day out.
