Class 47/7 47727 passing Bottesford West Junction on Wednesday 27th February 2013 with 6M08 Boston Docks - Washwood Heath loaded steel.
The previous days empties had run out to Boston Docks at the appointed time but, for reasons unknown, failed to return back that night so this was the first of two 6M08's on this day. Class 56 56302 later ran out light engine in the normal outbound slot for the train and returned later with just 6 wagons in lieu of the normal complement of 10.
