On a train...somewhere!
The second part of my rest day wanderings...this time Otterington and Zetland Bridge for some varied traction for a Friday evening.

47853 was the main attraction, debut-ing with DRS following overhaul. Sadly an AWS fault meant classmate 841 took the train forward alone from York:

57009 on the Ditton in very clean condition

A welcome surprise in the form of 66847 on coal empties, I was about giving up on getting this one on the Weardale job!

60099 is seemingly glued to 6D43! A different view of the train at Otterington
