Hi, does anyone know what traction is going to be used on tomorrow’s “Settle & Carlisle Steam Special”? Apparently, it state that its steam-headed with a 57 on the rear? Thanks all.

I’m not sure this is going ahead as the two positioning moves have been taken off These would have been the steam loco positioning moves. So whether it goes ahead with diesel or postponed is not clear yet. My understanding is it would have been a black five – I suspect the steam ban hasn’t been lifted

@holtonpc apparently it’s now going to be diesel headed. Which is extremely unfortunate and disappointing from WCR.
I just hope it’s not going to happen on the 31st with the Settle & Carlisle starting at Bradford.

Its diesel hauled throughout due to the Network Rail-imposed steam ban on the North West route 🙂
