66617 waited outside Bedford for a while until it was time to proceed through the station with this hopper train for nearby Elstow Redland Siding. This was a service from Crewe Basford Hall on 25th July 2022. Although the 66 was waiting on the same line as Thameslink 700121 in Platform 1, the flexible layout at Bedford meant it could be switched to Platform 2 to pass through and then revert to the Up Slow.
