After our curry at an establishment appropriately close to Carlisle station, we spent some time on the platforms before heading back to our accommodation. It was notable how much lighter it was at this time of the late evening that bit further north than we are used to in the south. Indeed, we were able to take photographs with no assistance from tripods or artificial lighting at past 22.00! Running a little late, 397006 is ready to leave Carlisle station working the 20.12 Edinburgh to Manchester Airport service.
