Freightliner Class 66/5 No. 66554 leads the 12:13 Leeds FLT to Southampton MCT intermodal towards Clay Mills Junction, Burton-on-Trent on 11th July 2017. Earlier, this working headed by classmate No. 66558 had failed near Willington causing delays to southbound Cross Country services for over two hours while No. 66554 was hastily despatched from Lawley Street to assist the failed No. 66558 locomotive. When photographed the train was running 140 minutes behind schedule.
