Join us in the cab of a Class 66 of DB Cargo from Brewery Junction, north-east of Manchester Victoria, to Wakefield. This is the second part of a journey which began at Warrington Bank Quay, with nearly 2,000 tons of household waste.
Our routing takes us on the Calder Valley Line, the first trans-Pennine railway across the divide between Manchester and Leeds, by way of Rochdale and Hebden Bridge. At the line’s highest point we travel through Summit Tunnel. The climb to the west portal is hard in places with a gradient as steep as 1:126.
