    In the last few minutes the filming was from the "Callie Bridges" and on the right looking north was Kingmoor Shed which is now part of a nature reserve. As a lad 60 years ago that was were my mates and I trainspotted for years.Great times especially as two of my uncles were Kingmoor drivers and my Grand-dad was a goods guard.

      Worked the independent ploughs in anger once, in the '80s, from Eastfield in Glasgow, over the E&G to Edinburgh then to the North Berwick branch, the deep cutting in the branch as filling with snow drifting off the fields. You can see virtually nothing behind the ploughs, you only have about a 6" strip of windscreen to see along the side of the plough, even less when actually ploughing. There were small drifts at several platforms along the E&G, blowing the horn like hell to get people to move back, most did, some didn't to their regret got covered in a cloud of snow!

    Two Class 37's and plough s perfect excuse to be on Carlisle Citadel at night as well to add an excellent background. Hope you are keeping warm Leslie.

    As commented in other post ploughs are rarer than steam. Apparently they passed through Skipton 17:30ish on Sunday. Keep up the good work

    Did you not zoom into the trains as they leave the station because at night you get lots of noise in the video making the graphics look bad?

      @@rxcko172 I try to keep the lens as wide open as possible to let more light in. Zooming in during the dark reduces the light and the camera software reacts by pixilating the image.

    The southbound container train with containers name ending in Fret (freight). Is this a international TESCO train with loads from Europe. There is usually a Tesco reefer, and a tanker container on this train north bound, which can also be seen on this southbound. The regular long Tesco train, (all TESCO branded) could be seen a little later. The reason for so many 'spotters' steam nearly 10 months of near weekly steam, ploughs only 2 to 4 times a year in the station.

    Great video like always mate. When those 68s in RHTT reach Kingmoor Sdgs, will they work another RHTT working back to Kingmoor TMD?

      @LeslieGilpinRailways 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks. Kingmoor Sidings are immediately north of the DRS Depot and allow access in from the north. Anything shown as starting at Kingmoor TMD is leaving the depot heading south. The RHTT runs in from the morth end, fills up with water and whatever else they use and will come out on schedule from the south. Dont mix up Kingmoor Sidings with Carlisle Network Yard which is whats left of the marshalling yard further north and still referred to by some as Kingmoor Yard!

      @LeslieGilpinRailways Ahh thank you for that Les. Also is there a name for the both sets of Sidings by the station. The ones where the 37s / ploughs went in and the one where the HST went in
