A dash out before the sun disappeared to capture the passing of the sporadic 6Z45 passing Roade. It being 22nd December means that the nights are now getting shorter and daylight hours longer, the opposite of what I stated back in June!

56301, 07.29 Wembley Yard-Burton-ot-Wetmore Junction (6Z45, 8E), site of Roade station 
 I had not picked up the running of this 6Z45 spoil train until serial poster Chris Warman mentioned that it was sitting in Wembley Yard ready to run in one of his UKRail posts. As the sun was actually putting in an all too brief appearance I popped out from home to capture it passing through Roade. 56301 is seen leading the 07.29 Wembley to Burton-ot-Wetmore Junction made up of a loaded rake of smart JMA/MMA aggregate box wagons. Notice the extreme glint from a southbound Pendolino towards the rear of the train and the three crows startled no doubt by the noise of the Grid!
