60532 Blue Peter heading up Day 1 & 4 of the Steam Dreams’ ‘Lakes Express’.
Day 1
The journey started out diesel hauled at London Victoria and will end the same way in Oxenholme with the Peppercorn A2 hauling the Crewe to Carlisle leg. We race it from Wigan to Blackburn and then on to Chatburn!
Day 4
The journey starts steam hauled at Barrow and ends in Chester before diesel haulage takes over once again down to London. We see it on the WCML near Charnock.
Watch another performance by the A2 here with Blue Peter being worked hard in the fog! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_TPD4JGL5s&list=PLxUf_eBrjUcH31dX2F-1_jiV2HYP7nGVz&index=1
