Freightliner Class 66/5 No. 66522, which carries the distinctive two-tone green Shanks livery, is pictured passing Drakelow East Curve Junction, Burton-on-Trent while in-charge of the 15:45 (TTHo) Bardon Hill Quarry to Willesden Euroterminal stone train on Thursday 21st February 2013. The Bardon Hill to Burton-on-Trent section of the freight-only line from Knighton Junction, Leicester sees very little traffic and therefore this is the only regular working over this part of the route with the exception of the movements of London Underground S-stock units to and from Old Dalby that normally traverse this route.
