90015, 90004, 90013, 90009 & 90012, 08.42 Norwich Crown Point-Crewe Basford Hall (0Z25, 14L), between Roade & Ashton
Five more former Greater Anglia Class 90s head north to
their new home at Freightliner's Crewe Basford Hall headquarters. Passing fields between Roade and Ashton the quintuple is led by 90015 'Colchester Castle', with 90004 'City of Chelmsford', 90013, 90009 and 90012 'Royal Anglian Regiment' tucked in behind. Ironic that these locomotives started their working lives on these lines in the late 1980s only to move away and now return again but to become lowly freight locomotives rather than hauling front line passenger trains.
