Kendal To Penrith And Return: A Snowy Scene

A set of photo's taken with a difference, showing the journey along the A6 on the service 555 from Kendal to Penrith. A very wintery scene unfolds! 15728 waits to leave with the 11:10 to Penrith from the temporary stop in Beezon Road, Kendal (Victoria Bridge having been closed due to storm and flood damage, which makes access to and from the Bus Station extremely difficult). All photo's in this set were taken on 15th January 2016.
Heading out of Kendal towards Penrith on the A6. 

More snow as we start to climb. 



Nearing Shap.

Joining the M6 motorway. 
On the very quiet Motorway and 12 miles to go to Penrith. 
Having arrived at Penrith Railway Station, 15728, would then operate the 12:10 return to Kendal. 
The road bridge has been washed away at Pooley Bridge, so this special service is being operated a s far as the village only.

Some services have had to be relocated from Kendal Bus Station due the closure of The Victoria Bridge.
