Running north on the up line, General Motors EMD Class 66044 in English, Welsh & Scottish Railway livery spotted passing through Northampton station in 2014.

Class 66 diesel locomotive, Class 66044, was built in December 1998 by General Motors Electro-Motive Division (EMD) and allocated to Toton TMD (Notts.).

At the time that this photo was taken Northampton station was still in the process of reconstruction, as can be seen by the temporary footbridge above the train.

Finished its operations for the day a London Midland Trains Class 350 stands on the station sidings in the background.

The new, modernised Northampton station was opened on the 12th January 2015, three months later than its proposed date.
