We had traveled up to see Class K4 61994 The Great Marquess
hauling the Lancaster to Carlisle
(THE FELLSMAN) train and were not disappointed.

Ribblehead viaduct
As viaducts go the Ribblehead is not very long but its 400m length
and 32m above the valley floor at its highest point against the majestic
background of Ingleborough the second highest mountain in the Yorkshire
dales makes it an impressive location to watch steam locomotives going over. It
is made up of twenty-four arches of 14m span with the north end of the viaduct 4m
higher in elevation than the south end.
