Locally based (Immingham) 47215 gets a heavily loaded coal train away through Barnetby on its journey to the coast probably for export. 47215 met an ignominious end being subject to component recovery and then cutting up at Eastleigh following a serious accident at West Brompton in the summer of 1989. In the very distance of this photograph, the impressive one hundred and thirty-seven lever Wrawby Junction signal box can be seen. I never managed a photograph of this signal box except one taken from a passing train before it was closed in 2016.
