The Scarborough Flyer 


Wakefield Kirkgate - Friday 20 July 2012


It was a dull miserable evening in fading light as 46233 Duchess of Sutherland hauled The Scarborough Flyer back into Wakefield Westgate around 15 minutes late. 

There was quite a crowd on the platform as Duchess of Sutherland came to a stop to drop off passengers who had travelled to Scarborough and back for the day. Probably not one of the best days for a visit. We’re hoping the weather will be better next week when we have a the same trip planned. 

The first video shows 46233 arriving in the gloom of a dull Friday night in Wakefield.


After a short stop and a quick whistle 46233 hauled the Scarborough Flyer away from Wakefield and headed across the Pennines via Brighouse, Hebden Bridge, Rochdale, Stockport, and Wilmslow before arriving in Crewe its final destination at 22:43.
