I had not expected to see the steam hauled special again until after Hellifield so it came as a surprise when I saw someone waiting at Settle Junction. I pulled over where the A65 crosses the line after Long Preston to discover that 1Z87 had been held at Blea Moor to give priority to 158 868 working 2H92, the 15:18 Leeds to Carlisle service train. “The Cumbrian Mountain Express” was now 53 min late and the sun was very low in a clear sky. The light was too good to take only one photograph as it came round the curve towards the A6 road bridge on Saturday 26th February 2022.
