Yes I think it was around that time.

 

Meanwhile I 70002 came from Crewe with 70016 and a 66 a few days before that with some wagons for repair. The 66 had failed so the 70s dragged it and the wagons onto the depot. All three locos remained their for a few days until 70016 left to Leeds FLT, the 66 was repaired and 70002 left today.

Yes I have just seen a photo and heard about this on Flickr.

 

This must have happened during its latest stay at Midland Road. Looking at photos on Flickr on December the 15th it was working cement trains in full Bardon livery and it went to Midland Road on something like the 19th. 66623 now has big Freightliner logos on the body sides and small Freightliner locos on the cab ends. However it retains the all over blue livery and the Bill Bolsover nameplates.

The days are getting longer and this train has come back into light (not great at the moment, but it will be in a couple of weeks)

I have loads of 66 pictures from my days with EWS.

 

Here is something unusual (prototype for everything department)

 

It is 66702 a GBRF 66 hauling loaded MGR wagons.  All is not as it seems.  The train engine had failed and the helpful 66 coupled to the rear and pulled it back into the sidings at Toton.
