6L68 @ Cardiff
As a strong testament to the fact that things do not always go right, double ALCo 44s 4490 and 4403 lead the first set of return cars to Thirlmere through Cardiff, passed at the perfect time by an Oscar. This blocked out our lucky patch of sun, and casted a nice big shadow across the side of the train. Still not too bad considering that we could have missed it altogether, although it was our only sighting of the 44s.
