48151 on the Cumbrian Coast Dalesman - 14/07/2007

48151 on the Cumbrian Coast Dalesman (Carnforth - Grange-over-Sands - Ulverston - Ravenglass - Sellafield and return) on Saturday 14th July 2007. On the outward leg she is seen from Grange-over-Sands leaving Arnside and crossing Kent Viaduct. In the evening, on the return leg she is seen from Arnside leaving Grange-over-Sands and crossing Kent Viaduct in the opposite direction. It was very windy so much of the sound was blown away (especially on the outward leg).

Thank you very much you're very kind. Sadly the quality is very variable as I seem to keep making silly slips. Chris

what's the point of this speed restriction of 35 mph when the engine can 60mph!

[khankadet]

It's a very arbitrary decision and if imposed would make it very difficult to find any paths on the mainline. Hopefully common sense will prevail and she will be restored to a 60mph limit without the need for the special dispensation. Chris

love the last clip :)

well the engine could still do jacobite duty but network rail say that this restiction is to do with the rails, even though soon penolinos with smaller wheels than an 8f could be doing 135mph.

Thanks once again - would be impressive from high up. I didn't spot any Buzzards there but did pop over to Bassenthwaite to look for the Ospreys between the two shots. Saw the male in a tree near the nest through the binoculars (too small to video) then went to the visitor centre to see the live cam of the hen feeding three chicks. Chris
