Hello

Last Friday I noted 79 & 90 @ Doncaster & 95 at Leeds so might be worth spending 2/3 hours at each location.

What's it called? It's called Cumbernauld
Many thanks for the responses.

It looks like me heading to the east side of the Pennines. Ideally, I hope that none are on the Bishop Auckland - Saltburn circuit tomorrow as I would most likely be on a South Pennines Day Ranger, and would need to purchase a fare from Leeds to any station west or east of Darlington.

Today, on the 12.53 from Hull to Sheffield, class 2, was 142071. Fairly well full too as it squealed out of the station.
Two photo’s here which I took of it.

Have some time off, planning to collect as many Pacers as I can, especially with some of the Heaton based ones due to be scrapped next weekend. Thinking of sweeping around Doncaster, Darlington, York, Leeds, Manchester, maybe Carlisle (as many places as I can to be honest) this week. Any other tips?
