With Britannia stopping for a short while at the railway I thought you might like to see her in action on The Cumbrian Guardsman on Saturday 2nd March 2013.

Thanks,

The opening location is at Cragghill Farm just North of Helwith Bridge where from the foot crossing the footpath leads to the field where you can capture the head on shot. The second location is very near the railway cottages at Selside.

Hope this helps..........Phil.
