DCR Class 56/0 No. 56091 stands just short of the Butterwell weighbridge on 12th July 2013. The rapid loader that used to stand in this position has now long gone, and trains are now loaded at the raised platform just visible towards the end of the rake of wagons. This train was loaded at the UK Coal facility at Potland Burn, then runs back through Butterwell for weighing and eventual east coast main line rejoin at Butterwell junction as 6Z16 to Kellingley colliery.
