Leyland

A positioning move of steam locos and their support coaches from WCRC Carnforth depot is seen passing Leyland on 21 July 2018. Since the reporting number had suggested ecs I wasn't as prepared as I should have been. Fortunately a friendly nudge from the station staff gave me just enough time to leg it over the footbridge to be able to photograph 37706 hauling 44871 with support coach followed by 45690 Leander with support coach. While the first two were heading to Bristol, Leander was dropped off at Crewe. Both steam locos were scheduled to haul separate charters the following day.
