The sun had just risen in the Calder Valley bathing the scene in warm morning light. Railfreight Class 60 diesel 60056 was held for 10 minutes at Heaton Lodge Junction with 6E36 the 02.30 Liverpool Biomass Tml Gbf to Drax service. The TransPennine Express Class 185 diesel multiple unit is a northbound empty stock movement and is emerging from the tunnel on the ex-LNWR New Line to Leeds.

An unidentified TransPennine Class 185 dmu heads towards Stalybridge station with the first eastbound train of this Sunday morning - 1K11 the 08.32 Manchester Piccadilly to Hull service. The Pennine mountains fill the horizon. The two large cotton mill buildings, Clarence Mill to the left & Whitelands Twist Mill on the right, have been put to other use but it is good to see them still standing. HFF and have a good weekend from lockdown Leicester!
