At Penkidge Wharf on the Branch from Penkridge Exchange Siding to Littleton Colliery Foxfield based 0-6-0ST Austeries Wimlebury and Whiston are ready to attack the rising grade up to the colliery with empty MGR's on 12th November 1993. The line of trees in the background mark the site on M6 Motorway. A few weeks later such a sight became a memory as the colliery was unexpectedly closed.
