With a then commonplace motley rake of coaches Evening Star is passing Griseburn Ballast Sidings between Crosby Garrett and Ormside with the days Pennine Limited, she would not have many more years as a main line engine due to flangeless driving wheels being banned.
Another favourite location of our good friend and main line companion John Shuttleworth.

With the latest technology now available for scanning photographic material I have had another go at this image using Topaz Ai, it certainly makes a difference to the problem of ' Noise' in most cases.

The two Raspberry Ripple coaches in the rake have been altered.

Yet another photographic location lost as I gather now an avenue of trees.

92220 'Evening Star' used to be a welcome sight on the main line. Here it is at Smardale with a southbound 'Cumbrian Mountain Express' on the 23rd April 1988.
