Lumo on the West Coast, Scout Green, 5th July 2026

Early days for Lumo on the West Coast. On a Sunday, there are two workings in each direction, requiring two train sets, which pass close together in time in the Shap area. Rather diffferent weather in Cumbria compared with Hampshire at the same time - by over 10°C.
