Late Summer Steam on the S&C   Scarborough Spa Express
There has been plenty of steam over the Settle to Carlisle line this summer (even if I haven't managed to get out for much of it!)...   Now that the 2012 Scarborough Spa Season (and my main line rides for this year) is over, it's time for the annual round up...

A bit of a break with tradition for steamsounds (uk!) but I'm sure that you'll enjoy the visit for some noisy steam. I certainly did...   Summer weather and two steam hauled trains to go out for. Sounds good? Was it? Read all about it...

NYMR Spring Steam Gala   Brid Bank
Another typically NYMR Gala. Typical for all the usual reasons but at least we had a couple of returnees and a new visitor to record...   I've ridden behind steam up and down it many times but this was my first chance for a lineside recording...

Two Brits, a Castle & no Lizzie   70013 on Shap & the S&C
Another decent weather forecast, three trains, four locos - something had to go wrong...   'Cromwell' on Shap & the Settle - Carlisle line and even the weather forecast was good...
