Monks Siding, BR 56030 (11.10 Fiddlers Ferry - Healey Mills) January 25th 1986.
A seemingly endless flow of coal trains fed Fiddlers Ferry Power station in the 1980's and ‘Grid’ 56030 is seen returning back to Yorkshire with an empty rake of MGR's.
* A note in my book says a pair of 25's were pushing at the rear as the 56 had a problem. Vaguely remember this and it was the kind of move that could happen at short notice on the pre-privatised railway back then.
