Nuneaton

I am accustomed to freight trains passing this way through platform 7 at Nuneaton to reach the North Chord, but this unit for Birmingham took me by surprise. The train dispatcher told me that the 9.09 often went that way to avoid freight trains; which didn't make a lot of sense on this occasion, as a Leicester train was due in platform 6. But the Abbey Street crossover to regain right line was a nice bit of rare track to start my day.
