Ais Gill.

The view from the cab of M51751 approaching the summit at Ais Gill on the 1641hrs Carlisle to Skipton. This photo was taken during the period I was lodging in Cumberland (working at Brampton Fell) but still living in Leeds, when I travelled over the S&C on my days off sometimes by car but mostly by train.

 

Class 113/2 DMBS No M51751 had a very short life, delivered in March 1960 built by Cravens and fitted with a Rolls-Royce 238 bhp engine and a Hydraulic Torque converter it was withdrawn in July 1969 and scrapped at T. W. Wards at Briton Ferry in August 1970.
