66429, 10.02 Tilbury-DIRFT (4M07, 12E), site of Roade station The 4M07 DRS operated 10.02 Tilbury docks to Daventry (DIRFT) Tesco service approaches the site of Roade's former station with 66429 leading. This is a 'go-to' spot for afternoon photography summer or winter offering wide and unrestricted views of the line looking south but if the subject is on the slow line, as is the case here, then the risk of being bowled is ever-present. With the Pendolino seen in the background approaching very fast I just avoided missing out by a few seconds on this occasion!
