Class 60 No. 60074 Teenage Spirit shut down at Branston while working 6M10 Peak Forest to Washwood Heath on 1st October 2012. Rescued by Class 66 No. 66050 the train was hauled to Birmingham, and the empty Cemex wagons were returned to Peak Forest by the same loco as 6M11 over 2 hours late with No. 60074 unusually towed at the rear of the train. Here No. 60074 is seen at North Stafford Junction. This is the third time in 2012 that No. 60074 has failed when making a rare appearance in the East Midlands, although it may now be seen more regularly if it stays at Peak Forest.
