18.5.08 57314 & 390045 1M19 15.05 Glasgow - Euston

The final drag of 2008 and it has been a drag season to forget as far as the weather was concerned. Despite wanting record as many of these diversions as possible I only got decent light on the very first and the very last Sunday of operations. So in the event this was one of only three sunny shots of a WCML diversion in 2008. 57314 'Firefly' and Virgin Pendolino 390045 wait time at a deserted Carlisle Citadel station with the 1M19 15.05 Glasgow - Euston, or perhaps more importantly, the final S&C drag.
