11.6.07 - 57311 6J37 Carlisle - Chirk, Dillicar Common

For years before it became an S&C regular the afternoon 6J37 Carlisle - Chirk logs would work south via the WCML. Seen here in the Lune Gorge at Dillicar Common, Virgin Thunderbird 57311 coasts south with another load of Kielder timber destined for the paper mill on the Welsh border. This shot was used in the location feature in The Railway Magazine - August 2009.
