56105 Rattles over the points at York as it heads north with 0Z66, which was a bit of a mystery tour of Yorkshire! Still good to see and hear a grid out in the wild!

Maybe my final capture of the RHTT this year. 37219 ‘Jonty Jarvis’ and 37099 ‘Merl Evans’ work 3J51 through York. Nice to see that 099 has had a bit of a clean, and looks all the better for it. Same again next year please!

The RHTT crosses the river Ouse on its way from York to Scarborough. Seems like an ideal time to take the dog for a walk!
37219 & 37099 Take charge of 3J51.

Colas Railfreight 70812 brings 6M76 Redcar to Bradwell Junction to stand at York for a crew change. These locos have grown on me so much over the years, they always impress on heavy loads such as this.
