Description
The Waverley Merrymaker tour to Edinburgh was booked as Class 40 locomotive D213 ‘Andania’ on the outbound leg and Peak 45118 ‘The Royal Artilleryman' on the return so quite where Class 50 50050 comes into the equation we are not sure but that's what showed up! Perhaps someone can phone a friend at LSL? Also featured in the video is the return leg of the Scarborough Spa Express ft 37706 and more. Enjoy.
