The North Western Wanderer Railtour Locomotive Extravaganza - 10th August 2024

A truly epic day of Locomotive action seen on the west coast main line at Springs Branch and Wigan North Western throughout the incredible day of Saturday 10th August 2024.
The North Western Wanderer Railtour with classes 20,37,40,45,50 all on show from Locomotive Services. We get 2 shots of the actual tour and all the light engine moves to match.
I got my first ever captures of 45118 hopefully get it leading one day, first catch of 50050 and the 20s in that livery. As a old diesels fan I've never had a day like it.
You'd never think this was 2024. I hope you enjoy this one. All the locos performed well apart from 50050 which I believe failed around arrival into Carlisle having a knock on affect.
Also a points failure at Wigan in the afternoon meant lots of the light engine stuff was late too.
