Pre-privatisation freight company Transrail operates 60015 "Bow Fell", heading the 6B68 08.45 Burngullow to Newport Alexandra Docks Junction Yard china clay tanks, the "silver bullets" as they were once known. It is seen here approaching the station at 14.29. In the far distances the spindly 40-steps footbridge can be seen, a popular location for photography, and recently replaced with something more modern, and less photographer-friendly!
