Summary

Description
English: Up empties passing Penistone Station on the electrified Manchester - Sheffield/Wath main line.
View NW, towards Woodhead Tunnel and Manchester, just five days before the New Tunnel was formally opened and full electric operation began. However, electrically hauled freight trains had been running Wath Yard - Dunford Bridge since February 1952 with handover to steam at Dunford Bridge; this train was probably one of those, headed by Bo-Bo EM1 Nos. 26043 + 26042.
