21/4/23 66095 Hunt Cliff, Boulby Branch.
DBS 66095 rounds Warsett Hill at Hunt Cliff with 6F23 the 9.48am Tees Dock (Cleveland Potash) to Boulby Potash Reception empties.
Low cloud obscures the view over Tees Bay as the train catches a lucky patch of sunlight.
Despite being atop a 400' cliff a Pole is necessary to include the full length of the train!
I had visited this location two days earlier as the weatherman promised full bore sun which did not materialise. On this occasion, with a similar forecast, the weather was again gloomy to say the least upon my arrival. I was fortunate that as the train approached the cloud parted and sunlight bathed the area in the foreground. After the train passed the sun vanished not to be seen again that day.
