Winter Warmers


401 steaming up for the first of two days of 'Winter Warmer' trains.


03078 has also been out to allow for crew re-familiarisation after its holiday to the Embsay and Bolton Abbey Steam Railway.


08915 propelling wagons out of Middle Engine Lane loop.


Second Man Dan walks ahead of the movement.


Nev on 08915 stabling the wagons in the north headshunt.


Driver Robin (L) and Trainee Fireman Tom (R) watch the shunt from the footplate of 401.


08915 propelling wagons onto the coal road...


....to allow Michael on 03078 to pick up the match wagon, Dogfish and flat wagon.


Heading for the loop.


The 03 joined the passenger train later in the day for further crew re-familiarisation, producing a bit of a rarity - a mixed steam and diesel double header!
