    To be fair, RTT/OTT are a massive help. Some people may have very short memories as to what it was like before these information streams when you had to rely on a friend back up the line to tell you where the train was.

    A couple of stills taken from the video yesterday. Definitely a Winskill day yesterday, but the sound of an unassisted 'Jubilee' is something special - seen passing Salterwath and Low Frith.
