Glazed over

I was going to use this composition for an arriving Pendolino but chose instead to use it for the 10.18am Carlisle N.Y. - Tees Dock BSC Export Berth (6E97), which just happened to get a signal check across on the Up platform. DB Cargo Shed 66171 is in charge.

 

The location is Carlisle and I couldn't let the elegant vertically framed glazing go to waste. Known as Citadel station in British Railways days (and probably still referred to that way by some locals) the architecture sure does the label justice. Perhaps not surprisingly the station was given Grade II Listed status as far back as 1972.

I'm a bit behind so commenting is off for this one. Looks better full screen, and where the unexpected pigeon is more easily spotted!
