By the time Andy and I had come out of

The Lakes and reached the south Cumbrian Coast the sun had come back out again. In absolutely superb light, 156429 arrives at Grange-over-Sands station working the very late running 14.41 Carlisle to Lancaster. The guard peers out of the rear cab, no doubt wondering if there will be more complaints aimed at him because of the continuation of Northern's terrible handling of their 'timetable changes' that caused such chaos over the last few months. Grange-over-Sands is a superb station in a stunning spot with the estuary of Morecambe Bay stretching out to the back of it.
