6H23 - Hillhead

            Freightliner’s 70008 heads down the branch from Briggs Sidings seen passing the now mothballed Hillhead Quarry a result of the HS2 cutbacks, with 6H23 17:56 Hindlow Quarry - Tunstead Quarry, this service has recently restarted after a number of years, this is due to blasting at Hindlow coming to an end and the need for good quality limestone to feed the limekilns 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
