Description
On a wet and windy day in November 1994 I spent the afternoon at Dent Station recording the mainline diversions from Preston to Carlisle. One of the class 47s stopped to pick up passengers and later on a dark afternoon I caught an HST crossing the Ribblehead Viaduct. Recorded on VHS the quality is not too bad for 26 years ago?
