Burtonian 150
45046 at Burton, Leicester Jn
The start of the Burton to Leicester freight line also serves as run round and turn back facilities for anything wanting to head back north. This is where the Class 20 hauled Burton - Skegness trains ran round and more recently, Midland Mainline’s direct Burton - London service reversed.
Engineers trains are no exception and here the Driver of 45046 rings Derby Panel to continue his run round of a spoil train, requesting access onto the main Birmingham - Derby line from where the loco would reverse back onto the train. 3/2/85
