Two months on from the previous picture with this title (6937388), all trackwork passing the remains of the old Calvert Station platforms has been removed in readiness for the continuation of HS2 works. The waste terminal will be rebuilt to the left and HS2 tracks will pass through where the photographer is standing.

Calvert waste depot and Greatmoor EFW incinerator
Class 66 No. 66078 running back to the Calvert waste terminal. Its train of waste containers is being unloaded to be returned later to London. The Greatmoor EFW (Energy From Waste) incinerator is in the background. This takes waste products both by rail and road to produce 'green' electricity.

HS2 Stone train arriving at Calvert 1
Class 66 66106 passing the old Calvert Station platform with another stone train from Tytherington Quarry in Gloucestershire. Up to three trains per day run to the HS2 work site at Calvert, each carrying up to 1650 tonnes of aggregate for the HS2 construction works. The trip from the quarry takes about 8 hours. The stone trains take many thousands of HGV's off the roads. Eventually, the old station and road bridge will be demolished and the HS2 tracks will be run here.
