Down at Grange Court, south west of Gloucester. This is where the line to Ross-on-Wye diverged until closure in 1964. Some good info here - note that the up loop was still extant in 2005, but has since been abandoned.

Here's a Robeston-Westerleigh fuel train headed by 60063.

I have seen similar oil trains running through Tamworth High Level to and from KIngsbury terminal with 30 bogie tanks behind the drawbar, that's 3,000 tons loaded and about 800 tons empty - big haulage!
