Coals from North Blyth

66564 rolls 6C14 1435 North Blyth to York Holgate Siding coal working past the site of Blyth Cambois depot shortly after leaving the port area.

 

The overbridge on the right crossed the former lines to the West Yard, formerly used to feed the staithes for loading coal for export.
