Thanks for all your replies. I've just come back from a trip up to Lincolnshire, based in Immingham with an enjoyable couple of hours also spent at Barnetby. Successful trip, with quite a varied lot of freight trains seen. In fact freight outnumbers passenger workings, with oil tankers, yes coal trains and the Drax biomass trains. Barnetby re-signalling appears to be just about nearing completion. I was so pleased to be able to photograph their superb gantries of semaphores. I'd be very surprised if they are not gone early next year.
