Editors Notes: 

With the successful return to the main lines of Thompson B1 no 61306 "Mayflower" as shown in our last clip, here we show a reminder that it wasn't the only B1 to return to the main lines in the past 12 months. The NYMR-based no 1264, in full black LNER livery, made a trip to and from Whitby from York in early April and is seen, together with 8F no 48151 at the back, departing form Battersby and then coming round the curve under the East Coast Main Line at Northallerton before going back under the main line flyover.
