D.C.R. Class 20 light engine move to Immingham at Chesterfield south - SCR154+155

            Quite a job here, as a torrential downpour made a jaunt out impossible.. These two old class 20s are on their way to Immingham to take part in some logistical moves of containers, as 'the gen' would have it. Same 'gen' reports that 60055 took IXA container flats to Immingham yesterday for the class 20s to work with over the next day or two.. that's just about all I know.. Here D.C.R., 'Devon and Cornwall Railway', 20205, in 'B.R. Blue' livery and bottle-green livery 20007, flash by the 'RailCam' lineside cameras, south of Chesterfield Station at Hasland. One camera faces south, on the left, and the other north, on the right, neither now have that good a view of the lineside so these 2 images had to paused and grabbed to get the best shots.. The individual screen-grabs were then merged to produce this single composite shot, remarkably the north facing camera had the pair on it before the south!, the latter was a bit behind and the image appeared after the north facing camera; so I have swapped them over in this mosaic of the action. This is the D.C.R. light engine move, 0Z20, Derby R.T.C. Serco to Immingham Sorting Sidings.
