A regular sight in the sidings to the west of Carlisle station in recent years, Direct Rail Services 57307 'Lady Penelope' was ticking over on Saturday 16th November 2024 ready to be called up to duty. The 'thunderbird' was rebuilt from 47225 for Virgin Trains and is fitted with retractable Dellner couplers to move the Pendolinos. #trainspotting #lineside #station #train #diesel #DirectRailServices #Class57 #57307
