On an extremely wet 2nd April 2016 the ECML was closed between Doncaster & York due to engineering works, necessitating relevant services to be re-routed via Knottingley & Church Fenton, creating some unusual sightings. Here, Virgin Trains East Coast Class 43/3 HST No. 43302 'Diocese of Newcastle' comes off the Ferrybridge line prior to passing through Church Fenton Station, heading the 11:30 London King's Cross to Inverness service.
Its Stablemate Class 43/2 No. 43206 worked the rear of the train.
