4th March 2006 - Settle & Carlisle Diversions
With a sprinkling of snow and plenty of sun, the S&C was the place to be with one or two coal workings and a handful of 57/3 hauled diverted WCML services. Big thanks to Scott B for doing the driving, and to Des, Ant, Bert and Scott for top company during the day.

18th March 2006 - Grid on Stone
56057 was used to haul a heavy stone train along the length of the Nene Valley Railway, and despite the overcast weather, this just had to be witnessed. It's been a long while since I last heard a grid making this much noise!

25th March 2006 - Local Tours
With quite a few railtours in the Midlands, I stayed local and got lucky with the sun.
