 So close to being bowled, by two trains! A London Northwestern Desiro had just gone south on the up slow with its tail having just gone out of view as 57012 and 350235 vie for the lead heading north. 57012 is leading the outward leg of The Cumbrian Mountain Express that left London at 06.48 heading for Carlisle and carrying the 1Z86 headcode in a nod to its usual traction, 86259 'Les Ross/Peter Pan'. As the train passed me 350235 just drew level with the locomotive so my positioning at this spot was extremely lucky!
