Hi,
First i traveled from my town to carlsile on a 156 (nothern star, Note:these are better than the rest as they have more leg room ;)) Arrived at carlsile at 2:03 and found i had missed the pair of 50's going south, they were due for 2:04 but they had being around 15 minutes before. I had to make this up so i stayed at carlsile for 7 hours, i actual met some photters who were there Gaz and johnothan, and thanks to them i had a laugh and got the times for some juicy stuff throught the day.

66147 20:21 southbound coal
86628+86638 20:30 southbound container flats
92031 21:13 southbound empty STVa's
86636+86637 21:04 southbound containers
Mail units 21:35 (no numbers as i was a train waiting)
66401 21:45 southbound

As 66401 pulled in my 153 was leaving back to my town (last train) and this is the time when it really picks up, and it was likely to be more 92's and whatever else seen as though there were not that many throught the day.

all in all though i think i made up for the 50's :D , + i got them on friday.

Sounds like you had a good day

Thats your own fault. You should have got to Carlisle a lot earlier. Railtours and other special workings sometimes work early or late
