Description
50 years since 1T57 'The Fifteen Guineas Special', the very last steam hauled BR service on British railways on 11th August 1968, we see three mainline rail tours in the North West of England 50 years to that day.

In this video we see LNER A4 Pacific No. 60009 'Union of South Africa' speed north through Lancaster on 'The Settle & Carlisle Golden Express 1' from Bristol TM to Appleby.

In the next clip LMS Jubilee No, 45699 'Galatea' passes north through Oxenholme with the London Euston to Carlisle 'Cumbrian Mountain Express' .

The third steam rail tour in the area is 'The Waverley' coming into Carlisle from York hauled by LMS Jubilee No. 45690 'Leander' carrying an original 1T57 headcode board on its smokebox door that was carried by 1T57 on 11th Aug 1968.
