45407 “Lancashire Fusilier” & 86259 “Les Ross” steal the show at York - “The Whitby Flyer” - 18/3/26
86259 brought the train from Kings Cross and swapped with 45407 which took over the train at York and onto Whitby.
This was my first time seeing 45407 so it’s great to tick another Riley Black 5 of the list as well as seeing a 86 for the first time too.
Very well presented from RTC and WCR.
