A most unexpected sight emerging from the fog near Milton Junction was Stanier 2-6-0 42948, a type that I believe rarely ventured as far north as Carlisle let alone across the border into Scotland. By the time I had the camera ready the locomotive was past, leaving a closer view of Black 5 45390, which was being brought north minus coupling rods for a visit to Cowlairs works.
