Getting the timing right

The working timetable showed that I could see 3 locomotive-hauled trains in a short twenty-minute period yesterday teatime on the Castle line. Overcast skies, fading light and a persistent drizzle didn’t help, a situation made worse by the late running of two of the expected trio. Patience was rewarded with 3 different classes all heading towards Nottingham, including my first sighting of a Class 67 on this stretch in the form of No. 67023 Stella, returning light engine to Derby from Immingham. It was preceded by No. 66787 and No. 60039 Dove Holes.
