Brierfield
Loco hauled to Colne. 37676 'Loch Rannoch' is on the rear of 'The Ribble Ranger' Branch Line Society Railtour, passing Brierfield on its way back from Colne, on 4th September 2022. 37516 (running as 37555) 'Loch Laidon' was on the front out of the shot here. The only other time that I photographed a loco hauled passenger train here was on 23rd May 1993. That was Pathfinder Tours 1Z46 'Lancastrian Mini-Excursion' headed by 60084 'Cross Fell'. The trees were not quite as high then! I cannot recall any other loco hauled passenger trains to Colne in the meantime but the Network Rail measurement train has been there with 37s at either end.
