EAST LANCASHIRE RAILWAY SANTA SPECIALS 2025
Description:
Today, we are at The East Lancashire Railway for the penultimate time this year. We see the event that draws most people near and funds the railway for every other weekend and event. Thankfully, the loco I wanted (46441) was operating which was really nice to see considering it is a guest locomotive. We also see that it is paired nicely with 80097, both wearing Santa Special headplates. We go to Bury, Summerseat and Ramsbottom for the shots today, we chose not to go to Burrs today considering the big puddle that was there – but we will find another filming spot for a future video. We also see dining coaches being shunted away today but I have saved that for another video. Anyway, that is enough talking from me so let us get back to business. For the shot at Ramsbottom, the 50 had to proceed through a failed red signalLocomotives In Action:
