Notes : 
(1) 60163 running tender first with 67029 for E.T.H.
(2) 67029 on rear.
(3) This was reported as the first steam hauled timetabled main line passenger trains to run in England for 50 years. It was a collaborative event between Northern, Network Rail, DB Cargo, A1 Steam Locomotive Trust and Bauer Media, to promote the Settle and Carlisle line, after the land slip at Eden Brows near Armathwaite had closed the line.
(4) Some sources had this event named as 'Plandampf', which is German for 'Planned Steam'.
