4.1.10 66114 6M00 Mossend - Clitheroe, Garsdale Troughs

This was my first shot of the new year in 2010, and I remember leaving hoping that the weather for the rest of 2010 continues to be as good. In the end it was probably my most succesful year to date. DBS 66114 blasts into a freezing Garsdale with a featherweight load on 6M00 Mossend - Clitheroe cement empties. With the deep snow conditions actually getting to this location was a struggle but I'd say it was worth the effort. There was no coal north or south today and I was told the 6K05 engineers wroking did run to time but by then I was heading home with frozen fingers. This shot was published in the 'Line by Line - Settle & Carlisle' book by Martin Buck.
