    Interesting schedule that compared with many tours. Only about 10 mins recovery time from Barrow to Leeds.

    I was on the Lakelander yesterday and it looks like only 32 seats are actually 2nd class in the buffet car, all the rest are 1st class and premier dinning

    Footage of 34046 today at Holme, Scout Green, Bootle station and Kirkby in Furness along with 34067 also at Scout Green. Well worth the trip out to the coast this afternoon; not often you get perfect light out there.
