Class 73 No. 73141 "Charlotte" (at rear) and No. 73201 "Broadlands" tail a two coach Network Rail test train formed of DBSO No. 9708 and 62384 through Burton-on-Trent on 28th March 2015. The special working is 22:21 Crewe CS (LNWR) to Derby RTC which included the testing of routes in the Merseyside area prior to returning to the RTC. This working should have travelled direct from Crewe to Derby via the North Staffs route but was diverted to run via Stafford, Birmingham and Burton-on-Trent instead.
