Two novel freight moves one at Brightside Station, second at Woodburn Junction - 4900

* Brightside

Bringing up the rear of the 24 MBA wagons consist, though the use of this extra loco is unknown, maybe just using the diagram to get a spare loco back to Immingham, 66199 still in the old EWS livery on this Peak Forest Cemex Sidings along the Hope Valley via Sheffield to Killingholme near Immingham; the 6Z63 working. The loop line and main line signals, S0197 and S0199 are both at red, the loop signal having been at this aspect for a while now, the main line aspect having changed when the leading DBC 66, 66010, passed over the safety overlap detector between the lines. This was quite a busy time before and after this working went through, though in this picture, there aren't any passenger DMUs about. Both lines here show evidence of the recent line re-ballasting and rail-head replacement; though this didn't apply to the Brightside down goods loop on the left.
