Looking west from the overbridge towards Edale station and both up and down semaphore signals can be seen. 170106 approaches with 1L28 1552 Liverpool Lime Street to Norwich. Time for another move.
A quick call into Earles Sidings to see what is stabled there and 66621 and 66608 are visible between duties.
Earles Sidings is very limited in its photo opportunities so I did not stay. Now at Thornhill, to the east of Hope station and 185117 forms an eastbound service from Manchester Airport to Cleethorpes, 1652 off 1B86.
