 The Settle - Carlisle Railway

1st May 2001 - the 125th Anniversary special from Manchester Victoria

The train passed Ribblehead Station at approx. 12.15 pm. Fortunately for the composition of this photo the train was late because right up until noon the West face of the viaduct was in deep shadow but gradually became well illuminated as the sun passed its zenith.
