At the head of 6J37 Carlisle-Chirk 18/9/21 Looks like it gained it sometime in August, I'm guessing in Barassie yard. Here it is passing Aquairie heading for Waterloo quay from Grangemouth. 30/8/21 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Claude_Dreyfus Posted September 19, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 19, 2021 (edited) A few from the other week taken at Eastleigh. Sadly I have left it a bit late and my usual source of train identification (RTT) is no longer available for this date, so there is an element of 'educated guesswork' with the services themselves. 70019 on a southbound (05:36 Garston FLT - Southampton MCT?) service. This picture was taken at about midday. Amazingly, I think this is the first picture I have taken of a Freightliner class 70! 70002 powers away from its crew stop at Eastleigh station with I believe the 12:56 Southampton MCT - Trafford Park FLT service. Picture taken at about 13:30. Colas 70815 awaits its timetabled departure. 70808 basks in the afternoon sun. All pictures taken on 3rd September.

There were quite a few people there because of the GBRf railtour. I hadn't been there for a good few years, and it was nice to see the place was still busy; even if the 33s, 37, 47s and 60s were now gone. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

D6150 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 An unidentified Colas Rail class 70 crossing the River Dee at Ferryhill in Aberdeen this morning. Workington to Waterloo Quay tanker train. The first time I've managed to catch a Class 70 at this location. A slightly more sophisticated camera might have helped, a pity about the awkwardly placed lampost...

It also blocked the Main and Platform 2 for about 20 minutes at Eastleigh. The driver got out and went I think, even a Voyager had to come down the slow and run around Platform 3 and back out to the fast south of the Station. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastwestdivide Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 In weak and watery November sun, 70010 on today's Dewsbury-Hope cement empties passes the site of Rotherham Road (between Rotherham Central and Rotherham Parkgate tram stop). Pleasingly, the PCA wagons included number 11111. The deep water warning refers to the drainage ditch in the foreground of the first photo. This runs under the railway near the bridge in the left background. It has been known to flood the line, which is why the equipment boxes visible just to the left of the sign are raised up. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
