Due to the closure of the Northampton route London Midland were having to be creative with their services to avoid the dreaded 'bustitution' scenario for passengers. As part of their arrangements, they were running services starting from Rugby heading north to Birmingham, Crewe and Liverpool. In order to get the trains in the right place, 350244 is working the 5U33 12.23 Bletchley to Rugby empty stock move going via the Weedon line. It is seen passing Milton Crossing just north of Roade.
