'Only mad dogs and Scotsmen go out in the mid-day rain...' (with apologies to Mr N Coward). At shortly after half past 12 an SRPS railtour from Glenrothes with Thornton to Liverpool approaches Leyland in a torrential downpour on 11 June 2016. The wipers on the WCRC Class 47 looked like they were working overtime. On returning to my car I found that it was surrounded by water in the car park!
