Picture of the Day
Colas Rail Freight Class 56 No. 56105 is pictured with classmate No. 56090 working 'top and tail' with train 3J88, the 05.00 Stapleford and Sandiacre to Toton TMD, Rail Head Treatment Train (RHTT). It is seen in the process of undertaking its duty of cleaning the rail head as it approaches North Stafford Junction, Derbyshire in autumnal sun, which highlights the dirty train as it made its return from Crewe via the North Staffordshire route on 17 November 2018. It is understood that due to defective wheel sets on the wagons, the train had a maximum 30 mph speed restriction imposed and was therefore running slightly over three hours late when photographed. It appears the train terminated at Toton earlier than scheduled.
