The line speed through Preston is 35mile/h ... Carlisle station area is slower at 20mile/h ... the approach to Glasgow Central is also slow, dropping from 30mile/h around the curve at Eglinton Street Tunnel to a 15mile/h crawl into the station. 1 1 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

APOLLO Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Here she is passing Boars Head (Rylands Sidings SB in the old days). You can just about see the Royal Scot nameplate. Passed at a fair old clip. Vegetation made an approach shot impossible, and these were taken through the fence. A couple of other photographers were also there. Oh for the old days here.
