This is 'The Fishwick Centenarian' rail tour with a piece of the action taken at Manchester Victoria on Saturday 28th July 2007. This was a Special Steam & Diesel Hauled Train Excursion operated by John Fishwick and Sons in celebration of the centenary of their company. This was a special all first class Pullman Train running over the spectacular Settle and Carlisle Railway to Carlisle. The locomotive is the CFPS's mainline machine 40145 recently painted in Large Logo and named 'East Lancashire Railway', and here it is looking splendid as it arrives with the ECS from Crewe The engine then ran around the train and coupled up at the other end, and I have another youtube file taken when the loco departed. This one though is a nice shot with the engine slowly pulling into platform 3 adorned with the Fishwick headboard. John Wantling, Rochdale
