DBC class 59, Freightliner and DRS 66 at Swinton Station - 6834+36+43

            As this is Swinton Interchange, the passenger moves are represented here in this 3-part mosaic and fortunately, I think, something slightly interesting turns up in the form of the 'new' Northern Rail liveried class 144, 144012, 'Evolution'. Not quite sure what this is supposed to prove or show, same old traction unit with a slightly different blue/mustard yellow livery isn't going to convince anybody that the 'Northern Powerhouse' is arriving. Still its something different and that's not all bad!  At top left a Cross Country Train class 220, 'Voyager' approaches Swinton's south-bound station exit signal showing that the last departure is two sections ahead and the next aspect will be green. The Voyager is on the long trip, 12 hours, from Penzance at the south-western extremity of the UK to Glasgow Central, 1S43, 06:30 to 18:30 and is about to pass Sheffield PSB's S0464, up line signal towards Sheffield; the Voyager will continue directly north through Moorthorpe to Leeds and beyond. 'Evolution', 144012 is working the local stopper from Adwick, north of Doncaster, to Sheffield on the 2R82 service and it has just passed the PSB's up line signal from platform 3, S0466, the signal having been set back to red after the cab of the loco passed over the TPWS equipment, between the rails ahead of the signal.
