23.10.07 66420 & 66424 3J06 Carlisle - Carlisle RHTT, Griseburn

The final shot of a terrific Autumn day on the S&C. It had been wall to wall sunshine today and with the prospect of the RHTT running I wanted to get one last shot in decent light. That meant chosing a location on a high embankment ideally with lower hills to the west. I settled on Griseburn and with just seconds to spare before the sun dips behind the hills, DRS 66420 & 66424 powered past with 3J06 Carlisle - Carlisle RHTT diagram. This shot was published in the 'Line by Line - Settle & Carlisle' book by Martin Buck.
