'Twas a cold and frosty morning.... A chilly-looking scene on the platform at Riddings Junction in November 1964 as one of Kingmoor's Black 5s, no 45481, thunders north through the station with the lengthy 11.15am Carlisle - Millerhill express freight. Note the changeover between bullhead and flat-bottom rail at this point.
