No, not that one, but rather the much less grand namesake near Falkirk. A 1980 Leyland Leopard climbs towards Kirkby Stephen station.
Kirkby Stephen & Brough Classic Commercial Vehicle Rally 2017

The 19th rally held in the Eden Valley in Cumbria. On the weekend of 15 and 16 April, many classic vehicles could be noted around the local roads and on show at various sites in the villages. A free bus service connecting Brough, Winton and Kirkby Stephen was offered, giving the visitor an opportunity to sample some historic passenger service vehicle delights!

A road run leaving Brough at 1630 hrs on the Saturday night saw vehicles taking a challenging route via Kirkby Stephen, Great Asby and Soulby.

This selection of images was taken on over the course of both days, with the weather being significantly better on Easter Saturday (15th).
