6201 Princess Elizabeth through Garsdale

Saturday 9th May 2009... on a very wet and windy day Princess Elizabeth 6201 stormed through Garsdale on the Cumbrian Mountain Express Tour. The chap in the camera shot is my Dad (aka The Doodyman - check out his clips too).

The second clip shows her (as light engine only) on her return to Crewe passing through Hest Bank level crossing.

Thanks very much Steve. It was so cold, wet and windy up there it was difficult to keep the camera steady, hence the wobbly middle! Rach
