Welcome

Welcome to my website which features my Class-86 25kV/AC Electric Locomotive 86259.

STOP PRESS(ES) - the 2024 program in conjunction with the Railway Touring Company has been announced. Full details are on our future trips page.

We have added a series of photographs from the cab of 86259 as she hauls a train from London Euston to Carnforth on a railtour.

The majority of the excursions are the Cumbrian Mountain Express with a couple of additional Cumbrian Coast excursion as well as some new-for-2024 excursions. The Cumbrians start behind 86259 at London Euston, calling at principal stations heading north on the West Coast main Line then changing to steam haulage on the northern section of the trips before returning to London Euston behind 86259. 

Have a browse around and drop back from time to time as I hope to keep the site reasonably up-to-date with details of trips both completed and yet to happen. Please feel free to drop me an email or visit our guestbook with your thoughts and suggestions .
