DB Schenker Class 60 No. 60074 'Teenage Spirit' is pictured at Burton-on-Trent on 1st October 2012 trailing on the rear of working 6M11, 09:53 Washwood Heath Cemex to Peak Forest empties, hauled by Class 66/0 No. 66050. The Class 60 had earlier in the day failed with a loss of power near Branston, south of Burton-on-Trent while working the outward 6M10, 0115 Peak Forest to Washwood Heath. Class 66/0 No. 66050 was sent to assist the loaded train, which had been substantially delayed, to its destination and then diagrammed to return the empties to Peak Forest. In this picture the train is running approximately 120 minutes late with the 'dead' locomotive coupled to the rear.
