Loco Used 35026 'Lamport & Holt Line'

Route : 1X36 throughout

Loco Route
35026 Manchester Piccadilly - (via Hope Valley) - Sheffield - Doncaster - York
35026 York - ??? - Manchester  Piccadilly

Notes :
(1) Route confirmation required - Alastair Wood believes from memory that it was routed via the Hope Valley both ways. Robert Cowsill adds: I have a photo of the train at Manchester Victoria platform 11, my recollections are that this train returned from York over the Standedge route possibly due to lateness. The ticket shows it should have returned as outward, the ticket does not show a name for this train.
