FANTASTIC Train Variety at CARLISLE Despite CHAOTIC start!
Oil from Grain heading to Prestwick Airport,
Dalesman steam Charter with Tangmere,
MPV
05 September 2024

The morning was dominated by the Up (Southbound) WCML being cloed due to 'something in the overhead wires' at Carnforth. I;ve since learned it was a bag, presumably plastic. As a result there were passenger trains stopped at Carnforth, Oxenholme (3) and Penrith before two more were stopped at Carlisle.
A dog decided to walk up the tracks in P5 and P6 bay!
The Workington China Clay / Kaolin tanks ran empty towards Aberdeen
Engineer's trains to Tyne YArd and to Basford Hall yard.
Tangmere arrived on the Dalesman fro York.
An MPV ran through en route from Wigan to Mossend.
Finally the Train from Grain - high quality aviation fuel from the Isle of Grain refinery in Kent running to Carlisle yard before heading on to Prestwick airport. Only 10 tanks instead of the recent 20.

Correction - 66796 is The Green Progressor and not as captioned. Being painted green, the nameplate was hard to read!!!!!
