Description
DB Class royal liveried skip 67005 "Queens Messenger" is seen racing north along the west coast main line and through Bamfurlong south of Wigan on the afternoon of Friday 29th March 2024.

The class 67 was working "The Easter Chieftain" Day 1 (Pathfinder Railtours) from Eastleigh to Aviemore running at tremendous speed bang on time.

Tour details

Day 1 working up the WCML via Crewe and Carlisle
Day 2 Aviemore to Kyle of Lochalsh and back
Day 3  Aviemore to Aberdeen and back
Day 4 Aviemore to Eastleigh via Edinburgh, York, Derby and Birmingham


67s are pretty rare through here so it was a lovely treat seeing a Royal black liveried loco. Typically the lighting here can be a right pain. DB 66034 & 66110 would take over the train at Carlisle for the rest of the journey north.


The official working today 1Z68 0510 Eastleigh to Aviemore
