56051 56094 6J37 Daresbury

Fortune favours the persistent? Attempt number 4 at phoning grids on the logs here in sun finally pays off as 56051 'Survival' leads 56094 through Keckwick, Daresbury, working 6J37 Carlisle Yard to Chirk loaded logs. 17/7/23

 

A bit of trivia, the rather faded 56094 was the first 56 returned to use for Colas, whilst 56051 is the most recently returned and the only one to have the smaller Romanian style grid on the front left on the mainline, 56049 having one cab end rebuilt to the UK grid end.

 

***NOTE: This shot is now gone. The field is now being developed for houses.
