There was plenty of sunshine to be found across lunchtime today (I need look no further than the colour of my arms, legs and face for the evidence) but as is often the case it was disappointingly absent at the critical moment. GBRf's 'Petroleum' liveried 66794 crosses the pointwork of Hunslet Station Junction with the loaded 6M38 1125 Arcow - Bredbury (16/06/2022)
The following afternoon and in considerably better light, 66794 approaches Pepper Road in Hunslet with 6M37 1125 Arcow - Pendleton. In truth this wouldn't have been my first choice location but as I was en route to Germany for the weekend I needed somewhere straightforward that would then enable a quick dash into the city centre (17/06/2022)
47773 propels the empty stock into York from Holgate Sidings for Vintage Trains' 1Z35 1726 return charter to Tyseley Warwick Road. The outward leg earlier that morning had been steam hauled and 'Duchess of Sutherland' was spending the night at the National Railway Museum ahead of a further trip to Newcastle and back the following day (17/06/2022)
