Bound for Felixstowe class 56061 is being trialled on the branch from Ipswich with this container train. There are at least three people in the cab and as such the trial was successful as class 56 were then introduced and used on the line. This is now history and the locos long gone while the vegetation has grown here and such the view is rather more obstructed.
