156475 stands at Prudhoe station waiting to leave with the 10.22 Newcastle to Carlisle service. It is about to pass under the wrought iron footbridge a number of which can be found at stations on the Tyne Valley route all built to the same basic design. It was notable how much the signal mast shook from side to side when the arm was pulled off and when being returned to danger; a little disconcerting for any passengers in such close proximity climbing or descending the footbridge steps!
