JOHN:
Great picture, thanks. Since you included pics of the Ribblehead Viaduct, I will add that the Carlisle to Settle railway is definitely a worthwhile journey.
I had a laugh that the pub was closed, I found that happened at 2 pubs in the Northumberland/Durham border area in January.

Great stuff. I see you were kilted... did your son wear his techno trousers?
They're fantastic for walkies!

Great pictures, John (especially of you kilted – pity about your youngster!).
As I saw the name Wensleydale I had an aural image of Wallace saying it in that heavy North Coontry accent of his.
Next, we will have to see more pictures of that railway display. I love the crimson and cream livery of British Rail (as well as some other British railway liveries).
South African Railways stuck to Imperial brown for its rolling stock and black for its steam locos. Terribly dull. Then from 1961 onwards it introduced a livery with grey window strips and dark red (two different shades were used at times) which I liked even less.
Regards,
Mike

Great pics but the commentary was even better. You're a funny guy English Bloke!

The last time I was over Alex and I took a run from Carlisle to Settle and back (train geeks that we are). The Ribblehead Viaduct (and indeed the entire trip) is fantastic and the Yorkshire Dales are truly unique to me.

Thanks for the pics John. Luv'ed 'em.

Now I have to FIND a cheesemonger.
