Cover picture: 'The S&C is still open for business!' - reports in the press are stating that the S&C is 'closed' due to the landslip at Eden Brows. This is not correct. Trains still run between Leeds & Appleby* with buses available at Appleby to take passengers on to Carlisle and beyond. In a typical S&C scene, which can still be enjoyed , a 158 unit crosses Smardale Viaduct.
* Trains are now running as far as Armathwaite.
