Oakenshaw and Healey Mills

Day three in North Yorkshire and I head west into West Yorkshire and an overbridge over the line south of Wakefield. It is predominately freight with an hourly passenger service thrown in. The overbridge turned out to be a busy place during the morning with rail traffic AND photographers!! I also made a short trip out to Healey Mills depot and yard to see what was about. A good day. 9/8/2006

    Northern Rail class 142 Pacer unit 142096 bounces its way past and will arrive at Wakefield Kirkgate station in a few minutes time. It left Knottingley at 1156, 2F70.
    A loaded "binliner" approaches behind Shed 66056 rather than the usual class 60. This is 6E06 1000 Bredbury to Roxby loaded GMC binliner. The smell from these trains is really strong.
    The Bredbury waste transfer station is one of four within the Greater Manchester Corporation area.
