The sun is just setting lighting up the northern sky with its warm colours somewhat at odds with the temperature on the ground. But curiously matching the colours of the Colas Rail Freight liveried Class 66 No. 66849 Wylam Dilly breasting the 1169 feet above sea level summit at Ais Gill. The sky is a s black as night beyond to the south and the driver of the Carlisle to Chirk timber train faces hail ahead battering onto his cab windows. The temperature on 3rd December 2012 hovering just slightly above 0.
