Galatea at Kirkby Stephen
by davidtrout
Jubilee Class express steam loco Galatea powering up the gradient at Kirkby Stephen on its way to Ais Gill summit on the Settle and Carlisle Railway on Saturday. Pete Weber photographed the same train, the Winter Cumbrian Mountain Express, at Ais Gill a few minutes after I got this shot.
