    27/11/09: 47832 stands at Workington prior to departure of the 0945 Workington-Maryport, hauled by 37423 (almost out of sight at the north end). Less than six miles in distance, these workings call at Flimby, and Workington Northside when this opens - a temporary stop to help locals affected by the loss of local road bridges.
