My first stop yesterday, less than two miles from home, was the Metrocentre, to change trains for Carlisle. Coming in the opposite direction was @northernassist Class 158815 working 2N20, the 10.55 Hexham-Battersby service. 📸: ©️ Graeme Pickering

Clear tonight and with plenty of #darkskies along the @SettleCarlisle @setcarrailway @foscl @northernassist there should be a good chance of seeing the #Auroraborealis
A combination of fast solar winds and the recent arrival of a Coronal Mass Ejection from the sun, could lead to the #aurora being seen tonight, especially across the north of the UK

One of those days you were glad you took every shot you could. 37401 after arriving at Barrow-in-Furness from Carlisle, 19th January 2018. We travelled back behind 403 that afternoon. 401 is one of 5 x DRS 37s which could be yours. My choice if I'd the 💷💷🪙 📸©️Graeme Pickering

On to Dent, the highest station in England. The amazing @foscl volunteers have transformed the station office into beautiful holiday accommodation. Those who book get stunning views and the proceeds go back to more charity projects #summerrailtour

Two years ago today, I started my role with @RailFreight - how quick the time goes! I’m having the most exciting adventure and making the best of friends. I can’t wait to see where the next two years takes me 😊

Catching up on trail footage & I have seen a couple of kits in our woodlands the last week or so but nothing prepared me for this fabulous surprise. I will admit I cried with joy!
This is why we do it & I'm delighted to see our efforts are making a difference already ❤️🐿❤️
