A bit of a grab shot at King's Sutton station but a rare working for the Chiltern Line. Due to the closure of the WCML at Wembley for engineering works, freight was diverted. This is the daily Dollands Moor to Daventry Railfreight Depot 6M45 working that conveys thousands of litres of imported European bottled water. This train took a circuitous route from Kent to Northamptonshire via the cross-London Line to the GWML as far as Didcot, then up the Chiltern Line to Birmingham and then south down the WCML to Daventry. It seems a case of the 'water must get through'!
