60s No More
The oil trains from Humber and Lindsey Oil Refineries to Kingsbury used to be regular DB Class 60 workings but not any more. By the time this picture of 66021 on the 11:04 Kingsbury to Humber empties was taken on 17 August 2023 the Lindsey trains had been taken over by Colas and the Humber workings were DB Class 66s more often than not. 6E54 was photographed passing Barrow upon Trent.
