66715, with Thoresby to West Burton coal, heads out of Clarborough Tunnel in 2011. This was a regular flow and passed here around 1000 every weekday morning for quite a few months. The coal fired power stations at Cottam and West Burton are now shut, which means there is no booked freight though Retford Low Level now. Who would have thought that just a few years ago?
