Getting towards the last opportunity to photograph this years RHTTs along the Huddersfield line. 

 

On 7th December 2020 with DRS 37423 'Spirit of the Lakes' leading, the RHTT rounds the curve from Heaton Lodge Junction at Colne Bridge and heads towards Huddersfield...

Despite the timetable change over the last weekend, the RHTTs are clinging on in this part of West Yorkshire with a 'last hurrah' (again!) for the class 20s. 

 

On 14th December 2020 working as 3Z13, 12.43 Grimsby Town to Huddersfield, on hire to DRS 20132 'Barrow Hill Depot' leads the RHTT through Brighouse.

20118 'Saltburn by-the-Sea' was on the rear.

66426 and 66434 on 3S01 , 09:22, Stowmarket D.G.L. - Stowmarket D.G.L. (17:41) - RHTT, last run of 3S01 for the 2020 season

Thanks to *all* the staff involved in the RHTT season, from here we have Russ -  @russ p

We were very lucky to have some great locos on our circuits - for instance on Thursday 17/12 I photographed 6 x 37s in a 25 minute frenzy.

 

Unfortunately no sunset at Eccles so the train heads into the gloom on the final leaf buster over the Brecklands for 2020, 3S00 from Norwich to Stowmarket taking the crown for the last Stowmarket RHTT of 2020 arriving at 18:22 to metaphorically close the doors behind it on its way out - until next year hopefully.

Cheers Dave

Spent four hours of hard labour disbanding the sets today everything is covered in a horrible brown slime and pipes and jumpers are very reluctant to come apart 

Wagons are going to York on Monday hauled by 66434 with 37419 on the rear and the locos are are going to crewe via Peterborough

Are you up front for either of the moves ?
