68011, 37419 & 37423, 10.16 Crewe Gresty Bridge-Willesden Yard (0Z19, 14L), site of Roade station
An interesting trio of locomotives heads south past the site
of Roade's former station. The more modern 68011 leads and provides the power towing 37419 'Carl Haviland 1954-2012' with 37423 'Spirit of the lakes' at the rear. With DRS set to dispose of virtually all of its 'classic' locomotives with them being put up for tender, it is likely that they will soon be a memory for us enthusiasts with the sounds of English Electric engines to be lost.
