Thompson B1 61385 approaches the barrow crossing at the south end of Wakefield Westgate in pouring rain on what is believed to be 16 November 1963. It is on the down non-platform through line, possibly heading for Wrenthorpe Yard with brake vans either end of a short rake of freight vehicles. The adjacent up through line was removed during the electrification works in order to site overhead support columns along the cleared trackbed.
