90049 & 90047, 04.57 Trafford Park-Felixstowe North (Cancelled from Ipswich) (4L97, 2E), between Roade & Ashton The well-publicised move by Freightliner from electric haulage back to diesel certainly does not appear to apply to the 4L97 04.57 Trafford Park to Felixstowe. In the gloom of an early October morning, 90049 leads 90047 on the up slow line between the Northamptonshire villages of Roade and Ashton. It was an extremely tight call as to whether this Freightliner service would bowl the steam-hauled charter heading north with it well within hearing shot at this point, luckily, the freight was moving rapidly due to it being electric hauled and got out of the way.
