Found them! This derailment occurred on the 14th August 2003 involving IZA twin-set wagons working what I think was the southbound newsprint service from Immingham to Barking; I don’t think this isn’t the derailment of the Wisbech service but annoyingly I didn’t write down the service involved on the back of the photos and my notes from that time are long gone.
I recall that the investigation finding was that whilst the track was in standard and the wagons within standard they were at opposite ends of their respective tolerances but a lack of weight in some empty vans allied to the dynamic movement of the wagons through the S&C caused wheel lift. What I do know is that this was the derailment that caused the IZA wagons to be banned from using Spittal Ladder which is still in force today.

Investigation - the bloke from AEA Derby taking measurements to help determine cause.

Rerailing and recovery - no cranes, just hydraulic rams, wooden blocks and slide bars. As it was the last few wagons of the train that was derailed it was easy just to drag them back up to Eastfield once back on the rails. These Perrier liveried wagons were an ever present in Eastfield until finally removed for cutting sometime around 2019 or 2020.

And all of this whilst trying the keep the ECML running as best as possible. Lifting operations stopped whilst trains passed on the Up Slow, my job to coordinate with the PSB, whilst still running freely but with an ESR on the Down Slow. Blue netlon fencing to demark the possession from the running line.
