What seems like a routine photograph of a Penedolino passing

Roade is not all that it seems to be. 390104 'Alstom Pendolino' works the 14.30 Euston to Preston at not much more than a walking pace following hot on the heels of the previous slow-moving diverted freight. Right behind this Pendolino were a number of other down services all running on caution signal to signal much to the frustration of the drivers and their passengers. 390104 never made up its lost time between here and Rugby arriving at Preston twenty-eight minutes late.
