The Duke of Gloucester is preserved and has been running on the East Lancs line recently. It could be that one as it is a Standard 8. I know it has been as far as Barrow which is via the viaduct near Grange. Sad aren't I.
Taken at Ramsbottam. It has the Caprotti valve gear.
You can always tell it from the smelly diesels cos it goes chuff chuff.
