Bay Horse

The flock of starlings had witnessed the passage of several trains from the wires but the rumble of a Caterpillar diesel engine stirred them into flight. There is still a daily path from Carlisle to Crewe for these TPE push pull sets for test/training purposes but once they were in regular use between Liverpool and Scarborough it was only occasionally used. In January 2021 however several runs took place and 68026 'Enterprise' is seen propelling the train at Bay Horse, travelling at around 30mph on a temporary speed restriction. Photograph incidental to a daily permitted exercise under Corona Virus legislation.
