Colas Rail 60087 seen crossing Docker Viaduct with the log train working 6J37 11:59 Carlisle Yard-Chirk Kronospan. 26/04/2017.
D1935 (47805) sweeps across Docker Viaduct with the 5Z47 09.00 Crewe to Carlisle driver training working on January 18 2023. When new in the 1960s, the Brush Type Fours were often given a test run between Crewe and Carlisle - however this was to train LSL drivers for a forthcoming charter to Scotland in February.
88007 "Electra" races over Docker Viaduct with the 4S43 06.00 Daventry-Mossend liner in the best of the morning sunshine in Cumbria. If there was anything I could get in decent light on this day, it was 88's which I didn't grumble about especially as this was the first time I had seen them with their pantograph up. Also of note is that Network Rail are carrying out stabilisation and pointing work on the Viaduct, hence the many ropes that can be seen dangling down around the arches.
This shot is not usually possible at high summer, however 4S43 was operating in a later path due to a major engineering blockade at Acton Grange Junction, which consequently meant it had to be diverted away from its usual route. This meant the sun was spot on for when it passed this Cumbrian classic.

I had intended photographing 4S52 the Freightliner Crewe Coatbridge here but although it had 2 90s up front it empty so I waited for 4S43 Daventry Mossend which was well loaded with 88009 up front..
35018 "British India Line" at Docker with the Lancaster - Carlisle Santa Special. A shot I hadn't taken since the view of the viaduct was opened up with the cutting down of some trees so I thought I would get it before the dreaded palisade fencing goes up.
