Leeming Bar

English Electric Type 3 37674 stands in Leeming Bar station in May 2018. It later suffered an ignominious Christmas 2020, by sitting on a trailer in a lay by near Skipton for over a week after being evicted from the Wensleydale Railway and then refused access to the Embsay Steam Railway. It was eventually taken to Alleleys yard at Studley for secure storage. Update: In late 2021 the loco was moved to the Strathspey Railway at Aviemore, where it now forms part of their operational fleet.
