Date: 17 May 2009

Location: Southbound, heading towards Ais Gill summit. Classic Settle & Carlisle stuff.

Locomotive: LMS Jubilee Class 4-6-0 no 45690 Leander.

Train: The Settle - Carlisle Express

Timekeeping: 10-20 minutes EARLY.

Steaminess: Loads and loads. Chuff chuff chuff.

Speed: Faster than a Renault Clio. Thankfully.

Wobbliness: 8/10. Very wobbly. Being ridiculously early meant I was totally unprepared.

Wind noise: Better than this mornings attempt. You can hear the engine. Puff puff puff.

Number of other spotters: Loads. I counted at least 30 cars parked up next to mine. I can count 27 people in the video, there were plenty more folk further up the hill and hiding away out of view.

Things to note: Trains sometimes run wildly ahead of schedule. I really don't know how all these other folk knew to be there early.
