Over a month after the takeover of the franchise by Virgin East Coast Trains, 91115 Blaydon Races clings to its former operator's colour scheme, as it speeds past Little Hick with the 1N80 07:08 Kings Cross to York service on 7 April 2015. The minor road in the foreground is now only used by farm traffic, after the closure of the nearby Heck Ings level crossing to vehicles, and the blocking up of the lane's junction with the A645 Knottingley to Snaith road. |
