Journey's end for me as accommodation prices in Central Scotland this evening were a little bit crazy thanks to a combination of a Rugby international at Murrayfield and the COP 26 global climate summit in Glasgow: 47854 sets down North East Railtours' passengers at Newcastle before continuing its journey back north along the ECML (30/10/2021)
47853 + 47828 await departure from Chesterfield in the midst of a blizzard with 1Z70 0617 'Statesman' charter to Bath. The walk from my hotel had taken less than ten minutes, but I'd arrived at the station looking like some kind of snowman (27/11/2021)
Fortunately that was the last we saw of the white stuff and the pair are pictured again on arrival into Bath Spa after an uneventful run via the Midland Main Line, Reading, Basingstoke and Salisbury (27/11/2021)
