Summary edit

Description
English: LMS Princess Royal Class steam locomotive No. 6201 Princess Elizabeth passes Shildon signal box on the Tees Valley Line heading east towards Newton Aycliffe station. She has just left Shildon station with a charter train.

This was one of several shuttle services operated on the weekends of 17/18 and 24/25 September 2011 (timetable), between the National Railway Museum in York (South Yard), the Locomotion railway museum (Shildon station), the Head of Steam railway museum (Darlington North Road station) and Northallerton station. This photograph was taken from inside the Locomotion site - the track on this side of the fence is part of the museum and is used for passenger rides and stock movements.

The services used a mixture of preserved steam and diesel locomotives - as well as 6201 they also featured GWR 4900 Class No. 5972 Olton Hall (of Harry Potter fame), a Black 5, a Class 47 and a Class 37.

The second weekend coincided with the LMS Steam Weekend at York. and the 7th Annual Steam Gala at Shildon.
