Main Event 44871 Blows Off Through Cumbria

A brief shot from us today seeing main event black 5 44871 of Ian Riley's working The Railway Touring Company's annual Cumbrian Mountain Express from Carnforth to Carlisle via Shap.
WCRC's 34067 Tangmere was booked down for this trip but she was not available so 44871 stood in.
Here we see him with the safety valves lifting as he heads north through Oxenholme Lake District after taking over from Class 86 86259.
Enjoy the brief video.

Didn't hear the blowing off much. What's not to love about Bobby the Black 5?
