86259 'Les Ross/Peter Pan' leads the outward leg of The Cumbrian Mountain Express running as its usual 1Z86. This left Euston an hour previously at 07.10 ending up at Carlisle. The veteran AC electric would give way to LMS Jubilee 56690 'Leander' at Carnforth. This was the first time that I have pictured this train from Hyde Road bridge in Roade as I was not sure if the whole train would fit in the shot between the two bridges, as can be seen, it does - just!
