A diesel locomotive is a relatively rare sight at a station, these days. Though, they're still in common use for freight. On this occasion, the GBRf General Motors EMD66 named "Golden Jubilee" is running fast and light from Liverpool, having been either to the Seaforth container terminal or to Edge Hill. The locomotive is seen heading away from the camera, passing signal HN34/27.
