Summary

edit
Description
English: Coal train. An coal train pulled by a pair of Class 20 locomotives as was normal practice.

There is a brake van at both ends as the wagons had no brakes. When the train started or stopped there was a rattle of bangs as the train stretched or shrank.

The train is running down the up line from the collieries between Arkwright Town and Staveley; by the time this photograph was taken the Great Central line had been closed to through traffic; the down line just here was used as a very long siding to store redundant wagons prior to scrapping.
