A shot that almost went horribly wrong after I made a last minute decision to move closer to the viaduct to avoid the shadow cast by an oncoming cloud! Luckily after scrambling up to the top of the hill with a couple of seconds to spare there was a relatively good view of Colas Rail Freight's 70803 as it was powering towards Blea Moor Signal Box with the 6C89 0917 Mountsorrel - Carlisle NY ballast (21/07/2021)
158795 approaches Ribblehead Viaduct with Northern's 2H95 1618 Carlisle - Leeds service. Just visible either side of the large tree in the background are 66783 and Blea Moor Signal Box (21/07/2021)
With the preceding unit having now cleared the section to Horton, 66783 eases 6E77 1643 Arcow - Hunslet out of the Up Goods Loop at Blea Moor and begins the southbound leg of the journey to Leeds (21/07/2021)
