A pristine Sir Nigel Gresley leaving Chester in glorious early morning June sunshine bound for Carlisle.
As the loco was sidelit I have had to tweak the contrast and shadows quite harshly to achieve the details in the running gear.
Wat an awesome engine...
Do you know how long it will stay at Carlisle?
I'm afraid it was a day trip only.
She returned to Crewe (via Chester) later the same day.
If you have a look at Railway Herald: Railtours she is scheduled to head a return trip from
Blackpool to Carlisle on Tuesday 02nd July, (no timings yet).
Good luck. https://www.railwayherald.com/railtours
