Sandiacre
DRS Class 37/4 No.37419 Spirit of the Lakes is seen on the rear of the Sinfin Syphons Rail Tour organised by the Branch line Society. This was the Saturday leg of the 4 day Summer Syphons Rail Tour working the 11:38 1Z39 leg from East Midlands Gateway to Stanton Gate.
Earlier in the day the Railtour had visited several rarely traveled passenger lines including the freight only branches at East Midlands Gateway Freight terminal, the Rolls Royce Sinfin Sidings and the Chadderston Sidings to the North of Derby Station.
Here the Railtour is seen traversing across the main line at Sandiacre towards Toton Traction Depot. The tour would then travel up the very rarely used rusty branch line to the former Stanton Steel works.
37422 is seen leading the tour in the distance.
