86637 and 86605 lead the 05.00 Trafford Park to Felixstowe Freightliner past Ashton Road bridge just south of Roade on another stunning spring day. One of Roade's two water towers, currently being converted into a residence, is seen dominating the horizon to the right. This is not a great spot for capturing a double-headed train with the electrification equipment spoiling the view somewhat! However, Class 86s should be photographed on every occasion at the moment due to their probable and imminent demise!
