Hello & Welcome to Harnetty Railways
In this video we have for the 2nd time within a month to mainline steam workings over Shap within a month.
We feature Locomotive Services Group's 70000 Britannia & West Coast Railways's 34067 Tangmere just 8 minutes apart in the dry.
We start by seeing 70000 Britannia which she was working Saphos Trains's The Lakelander from Preston to Carlisle after taking over from diesel haulage which brought the train from Leicester earlier that morning.
An hour before when we arrived it was misty however the weather cleared at the perfect time as we see the Brit sounding tremendous as she encounters Shap for the 1st time since August 2019 when she did the history in the making Lakelander trip.
With 12 coaches in tow & 47805 not providing assistance apart from taking his own wait.
8 minutes later we see 34067 Tangmere climb the grade as she works her annual Northern Belle working on the usual circuit.
Working allot more better this time round compared to her run back in March with the class 57/3 not providing assistance apart from taking her own wait.
There was a 3rd steam loco going over Shap which was KWVR Black 5 45212 but she was diesel dragged from Carnforth 10A to Fort William in readiness for the delayed start to West Coast Railways's Jacobite season.
So we cancelled the filming & it was a momentous decision as the rain came back.
We weren't lucky with the weather at Ais Gill as the strong winds & heavy rain however the performance of Tangmere more than made up for it.
We headed back to base early as news came through that 70000 Britannia had failed at Carlisle after she was declared not fit to work the return trip due to a big end failure.
Thanks for the company at Shap of @TheStephengthompson & @nige7577
Thanks for reading enjoy the film.
