Diverted DB Cargo Intermodal_4L56_Stone, Staffordshire_020125_01
A brand new spot for lineside photography at the time of taking this image. Here we see DB Cargo locomotive 66094 with the diverted 4L56 intermodal from Trafford Park to London Gateway on the bitterly cold afternoon of the 2/1/25 just as the winter sun was setting. The train was captured on the Trent and Mersey Canal in Stone.
This spot was accessed after a challenging cycle ride along the canal from Stone station, which was both icy and muddy at the time of taking this image.
**For information, this train normally runs via Wilmslow and Crewe, but due to the re-signalling project taking place in the Crewe area during the Christmas and New Year period, this train was diverted via Stockport, Macclesfield, Stoke and Stone. The train rejoined its booked route south of Norton Bridge on the WCML**
