Because of the major landslip at Eden Brows, just south of Carlisle, the S&C is closed to through trains - including freight. It was an unexpected delight this morning to see a freight train coming south, laden with track ballast. These pictures show the amazing results from the RailCam / FoSCL web cameras at Kirkby Stephen, Ribblehead Viaduct, Ribblehead Station and Horton in Ribblesdale.

Magnificent pictures, each still triggered automatically from the live feeds by the detection of the train's movement.
Note that the train was running wrong line in the first picture so the work site was probably between Appleby to the north and K-S.
