Having left home early to see the sleeper I had got this location when it passed running some fifteen minutes early dashing my efforts! However, I did capture the 4M83 02.35 London Gateway to Trafford Park working northwards. This is not a freight that I have ever managed to photograph as it normally passes Roade in the dark but today it was running extremely late. It is seen passing a recently min-tilled field between Roade and Ashton with DB's 66128 leading (with thanks to Mike for identifying the loco. for me from TOPS).
