850, outward leg of Cumbrian Mountain Express, Carlisle-Skipton, Keld Farm 
 Having taken over the train at Carlisle Maunsell 4-6-0 850 'Lord nelson' gets into its stride as it passes Keld Farm just north of Appleby. It is a little incongruous to see a Southern Railway locomotive on the S & C but steam on the mainline then was quite a treat so anything went! It is leading the BR organised and promoted Cumbrian Mountain Express that proved to be popular with both passengers and lineside gricers alike and has proved an enduring train with them still running today but to a slightly different format. Notice the two round hills in the background of Knock and Dufton Pike with the bulk of Cross Fell (ex D5/44005) looming above them.

There is an audio recording of this event on my youtube channel, see...https://youtu.be/7Pdd4TRvBpk
