Longsight

70002 has just negotiated the busy line from Trafford Park through Manchester and is about to take the Styal Loop with a late afternoon full load of containers for Southampton. The train has just passed the site of Longsight station, closed in 1958, and the headshunt for the nearby depot is behind the locomotive.
