LNER Gresley A4 Pacific - 4-6-2 - 60009 "Union of South Africa"93 views31/05/2021 - Monday - A late running 11.55 service from Bury (due to a failed Class 45 peak at Rawtenstall ) with LNER Gresley A4 Pacific - 4-6-2 - 60009 "Union of South Africa" approaching Summerseat foot crossing

A move to Ewood Bridge to catch it further down the line turned out to be a waste of time as the service was terminated at Ramsbottom and it returned to Bury ... but only after the failed peak and thunderbird went before it. I decided to return home after a 90 minute wait.
