Winter Magic ! LMS 44932 Pounds Over Blea Moor - The Winter Cumbrian Mountain Express

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Magical winter conditions were the backdrop for the opening mainline steam tour of 2023 featuring the recently returned Black Five 44932. The Black Five was hauling the Winter Cumbrian Mountain Express from Manchester to Carlisle via the S&C. 44932 is seen working off Ribblehead Viaduct as it forges its way to the Summit of the Long Drag in Blea Moor tunnel. Steam Scenes like this are pretty rare and it was well worth the 300 mile round trip for such a short video.
I hope you enjoy the video.

    Is good seeing 44932 out again as it only worked one railtour in 2022 so im hoping that this year it get's much better use on railtours & preferably im hoping that on this ticket it sees more use up north as three of them see soul use in Scotland on Jacobite's & the 4th engine 45231's seen more use down south since Hosking aquired it off Bert Hitchen's family, so a black 5 in the north west is a rare sight. Only engine that were missing now is classmate 44767 as then 10A will have a working pair of black 5's.

    Hearing it in person though is much much better, while I was unable to go out to see it today owing to timing issues as the routing had been reversed & the loco would now no longer appear in Preston tonight. I will be out to see 44932 next weekend as it's booked on the first WCME from Euston for 2023, routing wise it's northbound over Shap & southbound over the S&C.

    The initial shot, as the consist passes the Blea Moor signal box, is sucked dry of colour and left like an Ivo Peters shot - except for that wispy exhaust from the rear diesel unit. Evocative for those of us who can remember the age of steam, as it was.
