44871 & 5690 on The Winter Cumbrian Mountain Express Thur 30th Dec 2010.

Here is my footage of LMS 44871 and 5690 "Leander" on The Winter Cumbrian Mountain Express run by The Railway Touring Company on Thursday 30th December 2010. First we see the tour at Galgate then we see it passing Sedgwick on its way to Carlisle via Shap.
The tour originated from Manchester and was travelling to Carlisle over Shap and returning via The Settle and Carlisle railway.
Thanks to all concerned with the tour and hope you enjoy watching.

@stafford1an Thank you for your kind comment and yes it must have been a sad occasion for those concerned.

Many regards Phil.

Superb shots, I especially liked the footage from your second location.

Sad to see the wreath on the smokebox in memory of the fireman who died on the footplate of Bittern just before Christmas.
