The Choppington Changer 15th of March.

Here you will find my photos of my trip to York via Newcastle on board the Choppington Changer Railtour.

Videos of the tour can be found in the videos tab.

We start the day at London Kings Cross with 92022 to take the tour to Doncaster RMT.
A quick stop at Stevenage to pick up passengers and a quick photo stop.
Now at Peterborough with another passenger pick up.
92022 gets the road into Doncaster RMT.
56303 waits to get the road to run onto the stock.
92022 moves off from the stock after a quite hellfire run up from London.
66577 yings past with a rake of flats.
With 56303 now at the helm of the tour, we approach Northallerton low level.
56303 now rests at Newcastle after a very rateable run from Doncaster.
66423 idling round the corner to couple up to the 56. This was meant to be 66/5 from Freightliner. But Freightliner have 66423 from DRS on loan so this was used.
56303/66423 take one of the many curves along the way to York.
66423 idling away at York after a ish run.
56303 now after the 66 had gone. Note the different plate at the front, supplied by one of the passengers from the tour.
60048 "eastern" is ready to take the tour to Doncaster RMT from York via the houses.
92029, a different 92 from the morning, "ticks" away at Kings Cross after a great day.
