Convoy of Locomotives at Melton Ross
This has to be one of the strangest workings that I have ever photographed. 60046 "William Wilberforce" is seen in charge of 6D66, Immingham Reception Sidings to Doncaster Belmont Yard. The 4 56's in tow are Loadhaul 56118, CE liveried 56031, Loadhaul 56110 and Loadhaul 56090. To left of the train are the quarries and works of Birch Chemicals. The company was founded in 1815 by William Singleton Birch and today is a world renowned supplier of calcium hydrated lime powder. William's Grandson Lionel Martin Singleton became a Director of the company in 1915 and used part of his income to found the Aston Martin car company.
