Looks like they've fixed the storm-damaged section of the wall with lots of new concrete...?
Ah no, this was 2010 before the storm damage. A recent view of the wall take a couple months ago can be found here :-

Thank you, Charles. Nice bunch of photos.
Is the train transporting Radioactive waste? Nice pic!
In the case of the 57010 the answer would be No, the safety case for DRS requires that if the train is conveying radioactive material then they must have two locos. I think the Ministry of Defense wanted a train to take waste away from Devonport from a decommissioned submarine and then were not ready, so the train returned empty!

Glad you liked the picture!
