Thanks for these photos, it's a shame that not more freight can be electrically hauled especially between Peterborough and Doncaster with a loco swap at Peterborough and Doncaster.

If the route from Ipswich to Peterborough via Ely then Peterborough to Doncaster via Lincoln saw OHLE then I guess FL to name one would be able to haul services that route especially as I think there's plans afoot for freight to use the Joint line more.

Indeed! But I guess one of the (small) benefits of only having the GEML electrified is that it concentrates the AC traction in one place making them easier to photograph

GB will be adding a 92 to their Barton Dock service in the next couple of months so that will be an added bonus!

I look forward to seeing your photo of the 92 then!
