[@2010ditta]

Started with a convoy and ended with one. Too many amazing shots to mention them all Leslie. Great stuff as usual.

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks Tim, Can't say I didn't deliver on what I promised lol

[@aviationtrainsfc1]

What an excellent video, with lots of convoys, variety and 66197 looking amazing in that new coat of DB Red.

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks! DB seem to have repainted a few locos recently

[@aviationtrainsfc1]

@@LeslieGilpinRailways They sure have!

[@peterjackson-cheadleheath1182]

Hi Les There is always something going on at Carlisle, you seem to catch all the good workings, no doubt good research beforehand, lol Thanks

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks Peter. Yes a bit of research but also finding a theme on the more mundane days

[@michaelchester8997]

Thank you for a wonderful year of excellent videos. Happy new year too you.

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks!

[@train4905]

[@jon99t]

Happy new year to you Leslie

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks Jon and to you also

[@swearingkevo]

Another great vid, keep them coming and happy new year to you

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks Kev! And a good year to you too

[@PhilPage227]

Excellent video Leslie, happy new year, I especially liked the 68 convoy and the pendo snaking through the points. Great pity the WCML is blocked for the rest of the week.

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks! The WCML closure plus the strikes mean there are only around TWO passenger trains each way, to and from Carlisle today!

[@iantaf5559]

Thanks for another great video yet again, Les. May I wish you all the best for 2023. I don't know what's on your wish list for next year but perhaps a flange oiler for the line through platform 4 might be a good idea!!!

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks Ian, and all the best for the New Year to you. Yes there are a couple of places that flange greasers would be handy!

[@kenwilliams3560]

Another great video Les.
I take it the class 59 in the convoy never came up as far as you.

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks Ken. No 59s reached Carlisle, I thought they only got to Crewe

[@kenwilliams3560]

@@LeslieGilpinRailways not sure what happened to them after they got to Crewe.
One of the 66s that was in the convoy was about today on a wentloog to London gateway.

[@lesdonaldson520]

Great video Les . I think four 66s for one wagon a bit overpowered 😄.Wishing you all the best for 2023 and looking forward to seeing your videos

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks Les! I think it's 1 66 hauling 3 dead ones plus a wagon!

[@handicappedtraveler]

Great compilation

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks!

[@Awrightyatube]

Sterling stuff in these temperatures Mr G ! Extra bonus points at 10:41 for the 3 in one shot.

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks and a Happy New Year to you and yours

[@johnsmith-ie6in]

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Thanks John. I thought that there might somehow be engineering works south of Rugby but can't be sure

[@graemewilson4126]

[@xxfyrezgamerxx6279]

If it wasn't for the 1984 goods line crash freight trains wouldn't be coming through the station.

[@LeslieGilpinRailways]

Probably true, given BR wanted to reopen them in the 90s when the now gone coal traffic from Scotland was passing through.
