58021 Approaches Monk Bretton

Worksop based 58021 is photographed approaching the Redfern Glass works at Monk Bretton with the Wednesdays only working from Middleton Towers (King's Lynn). A banking fire at Grimethorpe would prevent the 58 doing the normal "run a round" procedure which necessitated 56027 being called in from Knottingley to push the train into the glass works sidings. The train comprises 22 wagons although a couple of these were empties. It was also running a couple of hours later than its scheduled time into Monk Bretton of 2.30pm.

 

I will also upload images of the 56 and the Box at Openshaw North Junction.
