Notes :
(1) Originally uploaded as 44414 working from Wellingborough to Higham Ferrers
and back with an unidentified 4F working the rest of the tour however a later
update has given the unidentified 4F to be 44260 and the legs on which each loco
worked to actually be the opposite of what was first suggested. Kester Eddy
questioned the running date, suspecting it may have been a week later however
Jon March confirms he has seen another source also confirming the 19th September
as the running date of this tour.
