BR Clan 4-6-2 -72002 Clan Campbell 133 viewsBR Clan 4-6-2 -72002 Clan Campbell on a Glasgow to Manchester service ( 1X06 sign in coach window ) heading off the main up line at Hellifield and up the Blackburn branch.
Taken from the Embankment near the south signal box, it shows some of the sidings on the left side of the track on the Blackburn branch. Also looks like the stock off a Long Meg mineral train in the sidings on the RHS.
The lines on the left are the main lines to and from Skipton and on to Leeds.

Leeds Holbeck Black 5 - 44828 leaves the central platform heading north possibly on a stopping train to Carlisle.
The engine lamp code of the Black 5 in the main platform shows it to be a light engine and looks like it is taking on water, whilst a Stanier tank works in the sidings.
