UK Mainline steam

My favourite shots from the UK mainline. (Latest first)

60009 makes a cautious re-start from Woodacre whilst working the up CME from Carlisle - Crewe on 26th July 2014. She had been stopped at a signal for around 10 minutes just the other side of the bridge in the background following reports of smoke coming from under one of the coaches. I t transpired (after examination) that a diesel generator in a newly refurbished kitchen car was the culprit and the train continued its journey.
