View westward, towards the junction with the West Coast Main Line of the loop to the Cheshire Lines (CLC) Chester - Northwich - Manchester line. A Class F empties is running towards Northwich, hauled by ex-War Department 2-8-0 No. 90135. Note that at least for a short distance the loop has been electrified, presumably along with the WCML Crewe - Weaver Junction - Liverpool (Lime Street) on which electric services began on 1/1/62.
