30.9.13 - 66426 6K05 Carlisle - Crewe, Crosby Garrett

Despite a cloudy and murky start to the day by the time lunchtime arrived we had clearer skies over the Eden Valley. Although there was a decent breeze blocks of clouds didn't seem to be shifting very quickly and it was touch and go for sun in many places. I had been done at Stockber for the earlier DBS gypsum diagram so retreated to Crosby Garrett for the engineers which wasn't far behind. Seen threading the dry stone walls near Crosby Garrett with 66426 in charge 6K05 Carlisle - Crewe was today formed of low wagons loaded with track sections.
