    Totally off topic I know but the route of the Shakespeare is not in the western region, it is in LNW South, so it won't be affected by the Western region steam ban.

    Whoever makes the call in the Shakespeare area is very fair, usually allowing shorter loads and not as much thrash before resorting to diesel.

    Pretty sure all the Felsmans have run with assistance for a variety of NP guesswork, so todays run is a positive sign.

    Great shots today, everyone, despite (or perhaps because of?) the grey clouds

    46115 thunders through the Fells - The Fellsman 01-07-15


    Thanks to Steve for your comment on the video - I can't respond through YouTube as Google+ doesn't work with my account... typical really that this week's Fellsman ran without a diesel, was considering spending another day in the north to see the Scot again but had to return for work yesterday. Oh well, can't wait to see 46115 (and, of course, 46100!) again soon! :)

    To try and get people off my back about window hanging here's some footage from a mate of mine who visited Scotland last month and travelled on-board WCRC's Jacobite. And as you will see this is window hanging, now will everyone please STOP moaning at me and drop it.

    It was made plain to you that in today's climate you shouldn't have had your head out of the window (because of WCRC being under surveillance by the ORR), which you admitted to doing as well as just holding your camera out, which could be deemed as not technically breaking the rules and seen as acceptable, maybe by the steward in your coach. You've explained that you've been suffering from depression, and I have every sympathy for you, but that does not give you the excuse to be aggresive to contributors which your remark is.
    Please just calm down and accept the situation, it isn't personal.
