45118 Passes Springs Branch - 22nd May 2025
The class 45 was working a light engine move from Carlisle back south to Crewe having been a part of a railtour from Leeds to Edinburgh the previous day. Running 13 early here it was nervy because of 2 late northbound Avanti services. Thankfully neither got in the way.
