Crossover
47225 on hire from Freightliner arrives at Sellafield on 14 July 1999 with 6C20, the Nitric acid/caustic tanks from Sandbach.
The train is crossing from the down to the up line from where it will back up to the site entrance. Note the diamond crossing in front of the locomotive connecting the up sidings to the down main, incorporating a slip from the up main. This crossover was taken out in early 2000s.
47225 would eventually become a DRS locomotive, though it would appear in a different guise, becoming 57307 in 2003.
