Now it's time for part five of my Uk trip.

On friday, we went from London Euston to Manchester Piccadilly. Unfortunately there was a diversion and we had to go via Birmingham, where we fell behind several local services.
All in all, we arrived about 60 minutes late in Manchester :neutral:

In the afternoon, we visited the autumn diesel-gala at the ELR. Although the weather was really awful we took several photos. Here they are:

This train will take us from Bury to Heywood:

This DMU took us from Bury to Ramsbottom, where we took photos of the arrival of 37175

D5600 was on the rear of this train:

We took the 37 train back to Bury, where we made thos shots (thanks to "theblackwatch" who showed us around the whole day, we wouldn't have found this spot without him):

On saturday, we went to York to take some photos of the 47 railtour and to visit the NRM.
I would have prefered this shot without the 47 <( :
