60055 Didcot North Junction 17 March 2022

60055 Thomas Barnardo slowly pulls away from a signal check at Didcot North Junction on 17 March 2022 with the 6Z53 11:18 Oxford Banbury Road to Newton Abbot Hackney Yard stone empties. It was cloudy when the train approached the signal, and obviously there was no sun as it moved away, but annoyingly, while it was in a totally unphotographable position behind the signal, the sun was out! This was the first working of yet another new DC Rail Freight stone contract.
