RHTT to the rescue. 20308 T&T 20312 with the Didcot-Tyne Dock empty coal diagram & 66704 attached to the rear and out of view, wends its way down the Old Road and passed Masboro. There were no reports on this and I assume the coal train on its way towards Doncaster was caught up in the flooding around Conisbrough. All traffic along the line was suspended, and at least two trains were rescued, or dragged back to Rotherham, and presumably to the cross over adjacent the Steel Terminal, in order that the trains could once more head north, taking the line to Moorthorpe.
