Settle - Carlisle plandampf, February 2017

16 photos of the second of three plandampf days, when 60163 Tornado worked normal passenger services between Skipton and Appleby. There were two workings each way daily. The plandampf was organised by Northern Rail to publicise the Settle & Carlisle line in anticipation of its reopening north of Armathwaite on 31 March after a year-long closure caused by a huge landslip at Eden Brows.
