29.5.12 - 66553 6M32 Killoch - Ratcliffe, MP 261 (Angerholme)

Whilst waiting to press the shutter for the normal shot at MP 261 (once the loco has passed under the overbridge) I couldn't resist this shot with 66553 framed by the red brick structure. The old decrepid fences on either side balance the shot in an unusual way whilst the huge flank of Mallerstang Edge looms large in the background summing up the spirit of the S&C. This shot was published in the 'Line by Line - Settle & Carlisle' book by Martin Buck.
