|  | West Coast Railways' Class 47 No. 47760 was derailed on the points entering Oxenhope station during the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway's 40th Anniversary Steam Gala on Saturday 28th June. This caused considerable disruption to the services. Using some pieces of rail, plates, wood packing and some very basic engineering techniques, 47760 is coaxed, a few inches at a time, back onto the rails. The locomotive was pulled by Class 08 No. 08266. The snow deflectors had been removed to avoid fouling the rails during the re-railing process. This image has been viewed 866 times | |
