North of Abington, at Wandel, 66581 "Sophie" takes the "Q" service (runs as required) 6E65 14.37 Ravenstruther to Carlisle Yard, passing at 15.19. Ravenstruther is one of those Scottish names pronounced differently to the way it is spelt, as I found out on this journey! "Renstrie" is how it is known locally!
66581 was one, of a batch of ten I think, that Freightliner returned to the leasing company in 2010, and was subsequently sold on to GBRF and is now their 66741 "Swanage Railway".
