A hazy day for SR 34046 Braunton and the Lakelander 18/05/24

SR West Country Class loco 34046 Braunton was the motive power from Preston over Shap to Carlisle and round the Cumbrian Coast back to Carnforth a for todays Lakelander railtour which originated out of Nottingham, we see 34046 with twelve on and 47828 on the rear at Scout Green in hot and hazy conditions, for the second to last shot the tripod was strapped to the palisade fence by an underpass on the legal side so was prone to vibration, thanks to Steve for the lift and crack this morning and thanks for watching.

Nige, Wonderful captures from different angles. Regards, John

[@nige7577]

Thanks John, with it being so hot thought some lineside shots might be better not expecting any real clag which turned out different, regards nige 👍

[@tattoo1084]

Good clag despite the heat. Good spot to catch her.👍

[@nige7577]

Thanks David, thought some close up shots would be better with it being so hot, the clag wasn’t expected, cheers 👍

Great sequences Nigel. I particularly liked the 2nd right under the wires . You followed this with the trip to Arnside so a good long day out in the spring sunshine 🌞

[@nige7577]

Thanks Keith, only down side with that shot is the vibration though the palisade fencing which is very close to the ballast and right by a culvert, certainly a hot day for trekking, cheers 👍

[@acw71000]

[@nige7577]

Thanks Austin, certainly much better than what we were expecting, cheers 👍

Thanks Simon, cheers 👍

[@StephenDrysdaleBroughtylad]

I need to make the effort to capture this superb loco before it goes out of ticket as it is one of the few preserved WC/BB that I have yet to encounter
at various locations in a variety of status.👍

[@nige7577]

Thanks Stephen, it’s certainly one worth catching if you can, cheers 👍

[@michaeltaylor1869]
