66621 passing Saltcoats with the diverted 6K05 Carlisle - Crewe Basford Hall.
This was a result of the derailment of the Virgin Trains Pendolino at Grayrigg, when a handful of freights were diverted via the Cumbrian Coast.
Nowadays, 6K05 is handled by DBS and normally runs via the Settle and Carlisle Line.
