The correct headcode is 6Z02 and there is no consist so guess it would be a track machine of some sort, possibly a rail grinder.

6Z02 inevitably proves to be a rail grinder on our area at least - the extended timings in some places would support that for this one too!

3Q85 - looks to be a track recording train of some sort, with 31285 providing the traction.

If it hadn't been so dark out I might have been tempted to walk down to the station.

Why will they always run interesting stuff at night...
