Both of these East Midlands class 156 at Lincoln railway station in June 2008 on this page were painted in the East Midland Trains Colours.
Class 60 007 at Lincoln station
DB class 60 007 still with EWS on it, on the though lines in Lincoln station with a train of tankers in 2008.
This class 60 is now (from 2012 to ?) painted in DB Schenker red with the "switch on to safety" decals.
As well as the tanker train this photo also gives a good view of signal HS 2. This signal was removed when the layout at Lincoln was changed.
There used to be two stations in Lincoln, The Great Northern's Lincoln Central and the Midland railways Lincoln St Marks. Unlike some towns and villages, these stations were right in the middle of the town. Both stations were lest than a mile apart, and both stations had level crossings near to the end of the platforms on the main High street.
Today Lincoln Central is the only station at Lincoln. This still has a level crossing on the main High street. Which the tanker train is still going over, stopping all the traffic once again.
