WCRC Class 47 diesel loco No. 47760 headed the train out of darlington towards the Wensleydale Railway but failed at Burton Constable and our destination was never reached. After a 90 minute delay it was decided to let the steam loco take us back to Newcastle via the ECML and a replacement class 47 No. 47998 'Prince William' was attached to the rear of the train at Castlehills Siding, Northallerton where the train proceded without much further delay.
