    I feel genuinely sorry for all those on board, for what must have been a bitter disappointment. I drove to Lancaster to see the 86 through, then jumped on a train to photograph BIL arriving at Carlisle. As it turned out, all I really noticed were the glum faces at carriage windows as the train arrived. It was my intention to take a train back to Lancaster then head over to Ribblehead for the return.

    One for @Victor
