The inaugural diagram of a new business flow by DB Cargo from Kellingley Colliery to Killingholme, transporting waste slag for use in the construction of a new riverside quay on the Humber. The new business to rail will require up to four trains per day for around six months when fully up and running, one with a set of 22 'MBA's and the second with a set of 'JNA's. This first service was 'top and tailed' in order to get the release locomotive to Killingholme. 66001 passes the former Hatfield Main Colliery and site of the waste landslide in February 2013. It has trailing a full load of 22 'MBA's on Monday 21st August 2017, the 6E53 09:14 Kellingley to Killingholme with 66128 dead in tow on the rear.
