A Peak, 37s, 93s & Blue Peter: Scottish and Private Charters around Carlisle 6, 7, 8 June 26

Filmed on 6th, 7th and 8th June at Carlisle, Eden Valley loop, Penrith, Upperby and Armathwaite. Still not feeling good on 6th, I refrained from seeing the SRPS 'Oban Peak' charter depart Carlisle at 6am! I did however come out for the 11pm arrival! The following day 37403 took the SRPS stock plus the Peak as a charter back to Falkirk and on to Bo'ness. On Monday 8th we had a bonus LSL private charter from Crewe and Chester behind Blue Peter. I caught it with other trains on its journey to Penrith (patrons left for a trip somewhere), the ecs to Upperby, a look into Upperby depot and then the ecs at Armathwaite en route to Langwathby where the patrons would rejoin the train back to Chester and Crewe. Other trains were recorded including a air of 93s on a test load.
