Its not often you see freight in both platforms 1 and 2 in Nuneaton, but see image 35693. The preceding train to Hams Hall, hauled by 66711 'Sence', was 23 down; so 66785 from London Gateway GBRf was doing well to be only 3 minutes late. By turning left North of the station, it blocked the path of 70008; which had just curved in from the Coventry line with a Southampton MCT to Trafford Park working, arriving 2 minutes early to change drivers. Notice the cladding on the footbridge, which is being re-roofed.
