Signalling Delay.
I have uploaded this picture just to explore the interesting situation outlined in an earlier upload on my site.
37250+37087 begin to back 7M71, the steel “blooms” from Lackenby into the British Steel plant, Workington on 1 May 1984. It seems odd that this move is delaying the passage of the passenger train (there are passengers on board its not ecs) seen here held at Moss Bay Iron Works' outer down home signal.
The most likely explanation for this is a signalling fault explored in the image below
