Glimpsed from the towpath of the Lancaster Canal, 158909 accelerates away from Carnforth towards the viaduct at Capernwray with a Morecambe to Leeds service on 22nd November 2020. Warton Crag forms the backdrop but this is a deceptively peaceful view as the train is just about to pass under the M6, and the modern tunnel that takes the canal under the motorway is immediately behind the camera.
