In pouring rain 66707 'Sir Sam Fay Great Central Railway' passes at speed leading the 4H73 05.52 Washwood Heath to Tunstead Sidings empty stone train. This working is in association with the construction of HS2 and will return full of stone to be used in the Birmingham area. When HS2 is completed, in whatever form it ends up being, the loss of the many stone workings will be noticeable throughout the country.
