43046, outward leg of The Settle & Carlisle Pullman, 06.49 Bristol Temple Meads-Carlisle (1Z14, 28L), King's Sutton SP491367
43046 'Geoff Drury 1930-1999' powers the rear of 'The Settle
and Carlisle Pullman' charter that was scheduled to leave Bristol Temple Meads at 06.49 for a run to Carlisle and back via the fabled 'long drag'. Unfortunately, for passengers and linesiders alike, the 1Z14 left nearly an hour late due to a brake issue only managing to catch up half an hour throughout its outward journey. The train is seen passing the water meadows near King's Sutton with this view taken from the security of a public foot crossing. It's interesting to note that the Pullman power cars have been in receipt of new front end lights enabling them to operate without the hi-viz yellow warning panels bringing an extra air of authenticity!
