Shed Light On The Matter

With the temperature a chilly -1C, dawn breaks over Peak Forest on 30th April 2021. It's 05:56 and GBRf 66770 sits at the head of a rake of loaded hoppers and will later depart as 6J56 to Hope Street, Salford. Meanwhile Freightliner 66604 runs through on the down main with 6D49 from Briggs Sidings to Luton Crescent Road. Sitting at the head of the red MMA wagons is DRS 66427 awaiting its turn in the loader and classmate 66423 sits stabled in the spur. Exhaust from Tunstead Quarry can be seen in the distance.
