#colasrail 70 809 runs up to its train at Crewe after running around so it can enter Crewe BH Yard

The train had come from the Stoke on Trent line into Crewe loops and the locomotive had to run around to pull the train into Crewe Basford Hall yard. Here we see the locomotive stop short of the train before drawing the last few feet to 'buffer up.'
Not sure when the rule book changed that locomotives stopped short, then drew on to the train. I've seen videos of locomotives at Norwich backing onto trains with the driver in the rear cab leaning out the window and skillfully stopping perfectly onto the train!
