A1 CLASS 60163 "TORNADO" HEADING THE 10:44AM SKIPTON TO APPLEBY SERVICE SEEN LEAVING GARSDALE STATION AND STARTING ACROSS THE DANDRY MIRE VIADUCT

            For the first time in just under 50 years, a scheduled steam service replaced the normal diesels on main line service. To mark the reopening of the Settle to Carlisle line (closed for a year due to a huge land slip north of Appleby), Northern Rail ran three days of a steam hauled service between Skipton and Appleby. Such is the love of steam, 50 years after it was withdrawn from the main line that it proved to be a huge success. All trains were full (5,500 people traveled on this limited service over the three days) , all stations were crowded and all vantage points were overflowing despite the usual wind, rain and freezing temperatures.

The loco selected to haul the 12 trains was "new build" A1 Class 60163 "Tornado" seen here crossing The Dandry Mire Viaduct at Garsdale Head just after leaving Garsdale Station with the 10.44am from Skipton to Appleby.
