Milford Junction [Yorkshire]

66167 has a Gascoigne Wood to Drax coal train at Milford Junction in February 2003. This was once a very busy location where many enthusiasts would watch and photo the trains. Some might call the location Monks Fryston after the nearby village. When coal was king this was probably the busiest location in the country to see coal trains. The bridge has since been rebuilt and is very high, and with no coal trains passing through here it is completely dead from how it used to be. The vegetation growth has also spoilt the view.
