First steam of 2025, Harringay station 0745 Sat 15 February

Last year's stalwart, the 'Black Five' no. 44871 has been swapped for its classmate 45212. The carriages, though still maroon, are more modern-looking - the older-style stock used in the past by the Railway Touring Company does not have door locks and fell foul of safety regulations.

It's a Valentines trip to York: exact times here, more excursion info. here.

NEXT known steam: Sat 1 June, Kings Cross to Great Yarmouth, past Harringay about 0755.
