Diverted liner


Due to engineering work between Coventry and Rugby over the Easter weekend, the "supermarket" terminal at Daventry was inaccessible. DRS trains were therefore diverted to Birch Coppice terminal, and here's late running 4S44 to Grangemouth returning north on Good Friday behind loco 66404, running some 150 minutes late but with only 2 or 3 containers on board ! In the background is the old Aldridge Station and Goods Yard site, now only a cross-over remains from the entire former set-up.
