Role Reversal
GB Railfreight Class 60, 60096 "Impetus" leads Class 66, 66785 across the Northwich Viaduct on 6E17 12:30 Liverpool Biomass Terminal to Drax Power Station.
This Saturday afternoon working is used to move locos across to Doncaster (via Drax) for repair and maintenance (or any other reason they're to be swapped out of the circuit).
More often than not when it's a Class 60 and Class 66 combination it's the 66 which is leading a stricken 60. The roles were reversed for this Halloween move, though, with the premium Brush traction on the front.
