A Blisworth bound passenger train
A Towcaster bound passenger train
The iron ore train is based on the train seving Blisworth Quarries.
Empties were pulled from Blisworth Junction by a shunter and fulls pushed back.
Owing to the layout of Shutlanger Sidings this is reversed
Empty iron ore tipplers are pulled to
Shutlanger Sidings and fulls
pushed back
The sidings are shunted by the British Railways shunter
They are laid out so the quarry company cannot shunt onto the running lines
