37884 & 37716 Leyburn Shawl 28 December 1992

Leyburn Shawl is a long rocky escarpment, just to the west of the Yorkshire Town. It makes an ideal background for this picture, taken on 28 December 1992. 37884 Gartcosh & 37716 British Steel Corby glint in the setting sun, as they head back down Wensleydale with the Pathfinder Tours 1Z37 13:30 Redmire to Swindon 'Wensleydale Explorer' railtour. This tour, along with one organised by Black Cat Railtours, which ran the following day and used the same locomotives, marked the closure of the line by BR.
