Exceptionally hot aggregates in Cumbria

On the hottest day of the year and a new location which is passed frequently on the cycle trips to Cumbria, here we see Freightliner locomotive 66616 working the 11:05 aggregates service from Hardendale to Tunstead on the 19/7/22 (6H51)

 

Despite the efforts, this was the only train photographed in Cumbria on the day in question due to major service disruption and this part of the WCML being shut from 14:00hrs onwards due to OLE damage. The majority of the day was spent under a tree going nowhere fast monitoring the track-maps and RTT.
