This is the "Scarborough Flyer" and not the "Scarborough Spa Express" (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=552404), and it only runs on certain Fridays from Crewe to Scarborough.
Last week's loco was 6201 "Princess Elizabeth (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LMS_Princess_Royal_Class), and this is "Lizzie" showing off in Horbury cutting near Wakefield on the outward journey and it's the first time I've managed to get a half decent shot of her.

This weeks loco was A4 Class 60009 "Union of South Africa" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LNER_Class_A4_4488_Union_of_South_Africa), seen here at Barton le Willows on the return leg.
1/800sec @ f7.1 ISO 400 40D with 70-200 f/4.0 @70mm.

Shame about the mismatch of coaches.
