0715hrs, 9th June 2020, and the Story contractor's staff haven't yet arrived at the works site at Forton cutting. Freightliner 90041 and 90045 power north with a Crewe to Coatbridge intermodal service. Contrary to appearances this was actually lightly loaded as the rear half of the train comprised empty wagons.
