In failing light, 43317 passes Shaftholme Junction with the 1E12 07:55 Inverness to Kings Cross 'Highland Chieftain' National Express East Coast service on 24 November 2008. The line diverging to the left is the freight only route to Knottingley, while just out of view behind the train is Joan Croft Junction, where the sharply curved freight chord links the East Coast Mainline to the Stainforth to Adwick freight line, which crosses over the ECML directly behind where I am stood. Shaftholme Junction Signal Box dates from 1958.
