JL - 19.1.23 47712 5Z48 Carlisle - Crewe, Elmsfield

Final shot of what felt like a heritage traction gala day in Cumbria. With LSL's driver training run from Crewe to Carlisle and return, a very rare 37 turning up solo on 6K05 and a 60 working out of Ribblehead on stone Cumbria was the place to be on this glorious January day. Seen in a lucky patch of sun just before the light disappeared for good the stunning 47712 'Lady Diana Spencer', in one of my all time favourite liveries (ScotRail), dashes south through Elmsfield with 5Z48 Carlisle - Crewe LSL driver training run. This out and back working has been operating all week but this was the first leg stretch for this beautiful Brush machine. What a fantastic throwback to the 90s.
