47330 Standish Junction 5 July 1991

The final 6L91 19:13 Gloucester New Yard to Dagenham Dock Speedlink passes Standish Junction on Friday 5 July 1991, hauled by 47330 Tren Nwyddau Amlwch / Amlwch Freighter. From the following Monday there would be virtually no wagonload freight trains in the UK (apart from MoD traffic), as anything that could not be moved onto block workings, would be lost to rail. The entire Speedlink network was withdrawn, after years of running at a loss.
