Skipton a major LMS junction and calling point

Skipton was of course a major railway hub in the
days of steam
 
 
The main watering and coaling point for engines
hauling trains up and over the Settle and Carlisle
 

 
Also west bound trains for the west coast such as
Heysham, Preston etc

 
Always lots of engines to assist

 
Lots of Mainline stars to see and photograph

 
Hopefully one day soon we shall see Embsay and
Bolton Abbey trains in the platform on the far right
