87243 ‘The Boys Brigade’ caught making a light engine move through Crewe station. A loco that I was always fond of, as it was the first 86 I was ever hauled by, albeit it was blue back then.

A trip to Carlisle was always rewarded with the sight of these amazing machines. 86101 ‘Sir William A Stanier FRS’ stands in the middle sidings of the city.

Intercity liveried Class 86 86250 (complete with early tiny numbers) with two classmates at Euston in the late 80s. I believe this unit is still extant in Hungary. #Class86 #Intercity #Euston

In September 2022, to cope with additional travellers for the Queen's funeral, additional trains were run with BR #class86 locomotives. It was an excellent display of collaborative #railway decision making. Here are a few photos of 86401, still displaying the Caledonian Sleeper livery.
86401 with the 17:51 London Euston to Lancaster

Both of these routes are set during the 1980s (specifically 1986) and come with plenty of old school rolling stock.

This is also a great time to show off more of my model engine fleet. This time focusing on the diesel/electric engines.

86259 ‘Peter Pan/Les Ross’ at York, pantograph raised, compressor running, and getting ready to go. Great to hear this heritage AL6 under the York roof.

86259 ‘Peter Pan/Les Ross’ stabled in platform 7 at York comes face to face with an LNER Azuma. The veteran 86 had worked in from Kings Cross with a rail tour heading for Whitby.

The work stained and weathered corporate blue of British Rail shown in full effect on this AL6 at Oxenholme.
