GB Railfreight Class 66/7 No. 66706 'Nene Valley' at Drakelow East Curve Junction, Burton-on-Trent on Tuesday 16th December 2014 at the rear of a rake of empty IOA-type ballast boxes hauled by classmate No. 66716 'Locomotive and Carriage Institution Centenary 1911-2011'. A scheduled diversion of this train, 6M26, 08:50 Eastleigh East Yard to Cliff Hill Stud Farm Quarry meant that it traversed the sparsely-used Burton to Coalville section of the freight-only route via Moira West rather than its normal route via Knighton Junction.
