It's winter gala time ! Which means, we head to our first preserved railway event of the year, which is, the East Lancs Railway, for their superb winter steam gala. We opted to visit on the Saturday (17-01-15) and to say the conditions were wintry, would be a understatement. With the late withdrawal of BR 92212, the ELR, managed to get a late replacement, in the form of Great Western Railway 0-6-2T Number 5643.
As usual the homefleet were all available, and put on some great performances, not forgetting to mention, Hughes LMS design Class 5MT 'Crab, that put in a storming run to, Walmersley Brook, with double banked, black fives on the rear. Ian Riley's Black Fives, were also paired together, for a run up the bank, to Heywood, climbing up the 1/85 climb past heap bridge.
A big thanks to the ELR, for another great event, with trains running to time, plenty of people travelling, and top performances from locos & crews. Hope you enjoy the video.
