4-8-84 40 044 leaves Worksop with the Manchester Piccadilly-Skegness service
This service was a regular class 40 service, and was followed about half an hour later by the Great Yarmouth train which was also a regular class 40 turn. Catching the first one from Sheffield as far as Worksop would then allow you to catch the next one as far as Retford, before returning to Sheffield. Two class 40 haulages in one day was a treat in 1984, as most of the class 40s had gone a year later.
