"It's been along day." Over 5 hours earlier, 66704 had headed north passed this point on its way to Tyne Dock. Now going backwards passed Miller's old footy stadium and Booths, the un-scheduled short southbound trip is nearing its end. Presumably the train, along with the Tunstead-Drax diagram, was dragged from Conisbrough to Rotherham Steel Terminal to negotiate a reversal in order for it to head north from Swinton via Moorthorpe, rather than via flooding between Mexborough and Doncaster.
