For most this was the highlight of the day - 21st century freight with a "Duff" up front! Colas Rail Class 47 no. 47727 "Rebecca" approaches at 15.45 with the regular steel service to Boston, 6E07 14.50 Washwood Heath to Boston. Washwood Heath has since closed and the '47 has moved on from Colas, such is the changing railway scene.
