On Sunday 6th September,  LMS Stanier Jubilee No. 45699 Galatea hauled The Waverley from York to Carlisle and return via the Settle & Carlisle Line running as scrapped sister locomotive No. 45562 Alberta. 

The Waverley is a tour run by The Railway Touring Company which runs from York to Carlisle and return along the Settle & Carlisle Line.

The Waverley usually runs in the summer months every year mostly running every Sunday once a week. However, due to Covid-19 most of The Waverley tours due to run in 2020 were cancelled.

Fortunately, two Waverleys were able to run this year, the first running on 23rd August hauled by 45562 and 7th September also hauled by 45562.

The Waverley would see 45562/45699 head through  Church Fenton, Garforth, Leeds, Shipley, Bingley, Keighley, Skipton, Gargrave, Hellifield, Settle, Horton-in-Ribblesdale, Ribblehead, Garsdale, Kirkby Stephen & Appleby.

In this video, RailView captured the Jubilee on the outward leg at:
