Ray,the location of your photo of 892 is on the A69 running alonside the railway between Haltwhisle and Greenhead near Blenkinsop Castle road end. I traveled on the Carlisle to Newcastle service number 34 when it was operated by United many times in the late 1940s to mid 50s riding on Willowbrook ECW lookalike Leyland PS1s then the first ECW bodied Royal Tigers which was a diverted order from ■■■■■■■■■■ MS. Occasionaly Bristol L5Gs and later LS’ s were used. The entire journey took 3 hours but it left the A69 at Low Row through Nether Denton and Gilsland before rejoining the main road again at Greenhead…
Cheers, Leyland 600.
