Freightliner 66515 heads north through Yorton making for Crewe Basford Hall Yard on 18 April. The train was running at 20mph with diverted empty coal stock after being sidelined by a wheel flat detector due to severe wheel flats on the rear wagon. The flats were so bad that the platform shook with each wheel rotation as the train passed through.
