Chasing
class 37`s in North Lincolnshire
6th
July 2015 - continued
Shortly after leaving Barton on Humber
the train lead by 37175 crosses Barrow Haven and passes through
Barrow on Humber station.
Thornton Abbey station just beyond Goxhill sees the train pass at speed.
It came to rest for several minutes at
Ulceby where the Barton branch joins the busy line to Immingham.
It began to rain heavily as the 37`s took
the LH line at Ulceby Junction and headed towards Cleethorpes.

showing how close the beach is here at Cleethorpes.
Some time later the ensemble, with 37219
leading, appeared at Barnetby East and stopped at the home signal.
It was booked to run through the sidings
as seen here...
...and then return to Barnetby East and take the crossover.
It is seen here coming back into the
sidings via the complex crossover pointwork.
It eventually took the Scunthorpe line,
on the right, at Wrawby Junction and headed back to Doncaster West.
