23rd May 2024 and a wet morning in Cheshire we see A4 60007 Sir Nigel Gresley passing Helsby station with The 'Settle and Carlisle' railtour D1924 'Crewe Diesel Depot' (47810) is at the rear.
What a beautiful train and old fashioned carriages it must be great to ride on a train like that do people still wave at trains like I did as a child my gran would tell us when a train was due and we would run to the corner of the street and wave and the train driver would blow the hooter and wave back that was when there was a station in Monton Eccles happy days !!!!
