Flying Scotsman halted at Corkickle. 30.6.82
4472 was halted at Corkickle signal box after problems taking water at Sellafield. The Cumbrian Coast Express had been due to terminate at Maryport but an ASLEF strike had prevented the previous day's Cumbrian Mountain Pullman with A4 4498 from running so the A4 would not be at Carlisle and was instead following the CCE. light engine now waiting at St.Bees to hook onto 4472's train!
