It's wintertime, a LMS 5XP heads a passenger train to Edinburgh along the Skipton route; the train stops at Skipton & Hellifield.

Nice shots. Is this the "Skipton-Carlisle 1920s" route from UK Train Sim? I had a lot of fun running trains on that route, back in the day.

The train rolls through 2 stations, rolls over Ribblehead Viaduct, & goes through Blea Moor Tunnel.


D&RGW, yes this is the Skipton-Carlisle 1920 route.
