Steam loco 44871 at Garelochhead

Last Friday was another attempt to catch a steam loco on the West Highland line.

The plan was to catch her coming into Helensburgh Upper station where she was scheduled for a 3 minute stop.

That fell through when the train arrived before we did but we managed to catch her while she was sitting waiting for the southbound sprinter to clear the line.

Success at last and here are someof my pictures from that day.
