69005 "EASTLEIGH" in BR Green with half yellow front end works the 7M18 Doncaster up Decoy to Toton Yard with spent ballast. Maybe of interest is that the loco, formerly 56007. is one of the Romanian Electroputere builds. It may one day be joined by 56009, which is slated to become 69015.

60026 is the passing light engine.

Photters were out in force for this one as 56103 and 56098 haul a rake of ballast in JNAs from Tyne SS to Humberstone Rd.
Lighting conditions could be described as "capricious"!

At first glance maybe an empty merry-go-round coal train but this is a stock move (hence the 69) of 24 IIA wagons from Ratcliffe PS to Wrenthorpe.
I am grateful to Richard Fitzgibbons for this photo as I arrived on site with a flat battery in the camera!
