GBRf Celebrity Class 66, No 66796 'The Green Progressor' passes Prescot Station on 6F67 0910 Tuebrook Sidings to Ashton In Makerfleld loaded JNA's. A planned visit to the station to established how much of the sun appears in the area as 6F67 passes through. Given the sun gaps I decided to record the loco in the shade and doubt this will change even in June! 5th June 2022.

05/07/13 Prescot: Northern Rail Class 142 142013 & 142092 head into the distance working 2F56 12:02 Liverpool Lime Street - Wigan North Western. The units are passing the site of the former signal box, which was demolished in 2012.
A fairly mundane scene that not many would photograph but 7 years later the Class 142's are withdrawn from the national network and the line has been electrified with local services now dominated by Class 319's and 331's.
Some of the artwork at Prescot Train Station.
It was a treat as we had come to the station for the café for lunch.

"The final piece of the Prescot Gateway artwork has been installed at Prescot Railway station."
"The striking piece of public art has been positioned to provide a warm and inspiring welcome to visitors to the town and is part of a wider family of artwork. Three other eye-catching installations were fitted earlier this year on roundabouts leading into and out of the town."
"The piece at the station reflects Prescot’s industrial and craftsmanship past, including tool and watch making, pottery and mining, the well know British Insulate Wire Company/BICC and of course the towns links to Shakespeare through his connection to the Derby family."
Artist was Martin Herron.
