66555, 11.18 Tinsley Intermodal-Felixstowe North (4L85, RT), Spalding station 66555 is seen at speed passing through Spalding station leading the 4L85 Tinsley Intermodal (located in the old Tinsley Yard) to Felixstowe service. The train is about to head south-west to Peterborough and then after toying with the ECML for a short distance head east again towards March. This substantial dogleg could have been avoided if BR had not closed the direct GN & GE Joint line from here to March back in 1982. Had intermodal rail been at the levels it is today I suspect that the route would have been modernised and still open today.
