Carlisle - 31/12/12

[Tim R-T-C]

A grey, cool New Year's Eve morning at Carlisle station. Went up to see the Icebreakers and got a decent handful of 66s. Morning flooding on the WCML meant knock on delays for the whole morning, including a TransPennine service from Edinburgh that was meant to join with a Glasgow leg having to wait 30 minutes for the latter, yet still getting signalled in front of a previously on-time Pendolino.

You can see the full set here and a few highlights:
