        I spent a short while just outside Blackburn Station on the East Lancashire Line and observed the following movements on a sunny but windy 14th of May 2025.

        Northern Diesel Multiple Unit And Short Aggregate Freight Train Blackburn East Lancashire Line

        The 2N99 passenger service running from Headbolt Lane (Merseyside) to Blackburn was operated by Northern Class 150 and Class 156 Diesel Multiple Units numbers 150123 and 156415.

        The 6K05 aggregate freight train service running from Carlisle North Yard to Basford Hall Yard Crewe was operated by Direct Rail Services Class 68 Diesel Locomotive Number 68006.
