After a quick descent on foot from the top of the tip, SY.1397 was photographed restarting from the bothy with its train of ash empties at lunchtime on 12 November 2012. The wind had made photography difficult for most of the morning but, on this occasion, the exhaust lifted enough to keep the shadow off the side of the engine.
