It's only a short train, but a pretty colourful one all the same..

EWS/DB Schenker Locomotive 60074 'Teenage Spirit', wearing its 'Teenage Cancer Trust' livery heads south at Langthwaite Lane, Scawthorpe, Doncaster, working 6D80 Neville Hill - Lindsey Oil Refinery slightly early, on Wednesday 19th August 2009. Had the train come 30 seconds later, this shot would have been obscured by a DMU in the opposite direction.
 
Presumably they are transporting crude oil to the refinery?

Is there a local Onshore oil field nearby?

Taking Diesel from Lindsey Oil Refinery on the coast of Lincolnshire to Neville Hill Depot near Leeds. This will be used to refuel locos and DMU's at the end of a days work. This is the return working, with empty tanks being returned to the refinery.
