Back at the crossing


This farm track has a gated crossing over the railway between Staythorpe and Rolleston. I’ve made it the focal point of my bike ride a few times, and tried to time it right to photograph one of the oil trains from the Humber refinery to the West Midlands distribution depot at Kinsgsbury. I was joined once more yesterday, during a brief rural interlude waiting for the train, by a lively common whitethroat. The afternoon working was hauled by Class 60 No. 60039 Dove Holes.
