60532 Blue Peter

   Decided to take a trip down to Carlisle to see an engine I haven't seen before. 60532 Blue Peter was heading up "The Lakeland" excursion.

   A wee bit of it's history - 60532 was withdrawn from service on the 31st December 1966 and put into store.
Blue Peter was purchased for preservation in 1968 by Geoff Drury and with the involvement of the children’s BBC TV programme of the same name, was restored to working condition once more. Restoration was undertaken at York, Leeds and Doncaster Works where it was repainted in LNER apple-green livery as number 532.
