RMweb Premium Phil Mc Posted April 23, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 23, 2021 A few from Eastleigh on Wednesday evening. 66774 powers through the station. When 66743 crawled into view, I was expecting quite a lengthy train. Which it wasn't......!! 66513 leads 66602. And a few others dotted around the station.

Railfreight1998 Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Freightliner's 66544 working from Millerhill to Aberdeen with the Fugro RILA survey equipment. This was one of several identical runs over the past few days. 66s are now strangely fairly uncommon on this route. Apart from occasionally replacing a 68 on intermodal workings, they are only seen on engineers trains. Stonehaven, 28/4/21 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold 4630 Posted May 2, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 2, 2021 On 2nd May 2021, GBRf 66710 'Phil Packer BRIT' heads through Brighouse in light rain with the Sundays only 6M51, 12.03 Doncaster Down Decoy Yard to Liverpool Biomass Terminal.

RMweb Gold 4630 Posted May 3, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 3, 2021 A delve into the far reaches of my hard drive looking for something else (which I still can't find ) yielded a few images from several years ago. How the years pass - some things stay the same; some things change out of all recognition. All these were taken on 25th July 2006. EWS 66197 approaching Barnetby - complete with semaphores... ...Freightliner 66616 heading west. Moving on couple of miles to the east to Melton Ross and EWS 66049 passes light locomotive... ...while EWS 66197 appeared again, now heading west. After a short walk to the footbridge at New Barnetby Level Crossing, Freightliner 66618 heading east towards the Humber refinery. 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
