Accrington Web - Today in pictures

Thanks Margaret, it was a bit cold first thing in the morning but warmed up later. I have got more engines from Saturday, plus about 20ish videos to edit together into one video.

I've also got two days worth of images and videos (taken over around 20 hours on Sunday and Monday) of the Flying Scotsman and Union of South Africa.

You'd be surprised, there are almost as many women as men watching the steam trains. The Station Master at Ramsbottom is a woman and there are several women working as train drivers on the ELR. Maybe the girls got dragged along as kids because their fathers were into the trains, all trains are called 'she'....

The Union of South Africa 60009 on The East Lancs Railway ¦ Final Run?

The Union of South Africa 60009 on The East Lancs Railway taken at Irwell Vale, Ramsbottom and Summerseat 29-08 to 30-08-2021. This may have been it's final run on the ELR as it broke down on Bank Holiday Monday. It was due to run again on Fri-Sun but it broke down again on Friday and I missed the earlier runs.
