    Is it just my imagination or are we getting more slips just on the approach to Shap Summit?

    Miserable weather conditions today as LNE A3 class 4-6-2 'Flying Scotsman' races through Greenhalme with the northbound 'Hadrian'

    60103 2b.jpg

    LNE A3 class 4-6-2 No. 60103 'Flying Scotsman' leans into the curve as it works 'The Hadrian' towards Hexham and home

    Never been on here for ages but after seeing Flying Scotsman today on its maiden trip along the Tyne Valley, i thought i would share my photos which are my own and i dont give permission for them to be shared or used elsewhere.

    Im not a professional photographer by any means but would appreciate any constructive comments

    A difficult task in the circumstances but standing in a field in the Lune Gorge with no shelter for any length of time was a sign of either stupidity or obsession; my wife still hasn't quite decided which it is !

    Looks like the A3 took the climb very much in its stride without any assistance. Any speed at the summit info, seems a brisk pace from the films?

    Many thanks Henry. Yes what a memorable occasion that was - 24th October 2009, still can't quite believe they managed to get her going again, but eternally glad they did.
