This was my last day with Jim Greg and Steve.
We'd travelled up the previous day after loosing the light at Barnetby and had pre booked the Ribblehead station Inn, getting there first led me to grabbing the rooom with a view .....sraight over the viaduct.
Next morning was overcast but it did not rain, a small mercy.
Who ever said the S & C was quite for freight needs to come and sit line side again, although not quite hellish busy it ticks over very nicely with ample time to move between locations and still catch the varied traffic. The motive power was exclusivly green and red 66, but i'm still kicking my self for not having a camera handy when the DRS weedkiller train came over the viaduct shortly after I arrived.
