We’ve woken up in Scotland to very different weather we gad on Scafell. There’s low grey cloud snd half-light as we head along the West Higland line some 90 minutes late. A delay that was mainly caused by signalling issues at Sellafield which caused our late departure from Ravenglass.

A factor in Scotland is that our extra Peak (45118) has weight restrictions over certain bridges on the line to Fort William.

Right now the operations and safety teams are discussions on options…

Meanwhile, there’s nothing to do but sip coffee and enjoy the rugged scenery as it rolls by whikst trying to pick out deer in the gloom.
