Everyone "does" the Cornish china clays ;)

 

Not everyone does the going-away shots.  66092 at Lostwithiel about to enter the down loop to run round with Carne Point - Goonbarrow empties

 

IMG_1920-L.jpg

 

Same train about an hour later attacking the bank above Lostwithiel up to Treverrin

 

IMG_1942-L.jpg

 

And much later still the loaded return train eases over Golant causeway at half-tide 

 

IMG_1971-L.jpg

 

OK it's 59004 leading the train but 66096 and a mate are waiting their turn in Acton yard.

 

IMG_1279-L.jpg

 

Sheds at Eastleigh: 66711 in new colours leads brand new 66763 off the works and towards the yard

 

IMG_1859-L.jpg

 

66715 and 66150 share yard space with 70806

 

IMG_1878-L.jpg

 

While 66140 has charge of what I noted from RTT as a Swaythling - Coventry working, crossing via the down loop to be staged in the yard waiting a path.  The track panel transport train parked in the yard adds interest here.

A selection from Dove Holes today.

66101 shunting a rake for loading, which included an ex-BAA and an ex-BBA box wagon.

66238 getting a good work-out, plenty of noise and smoke, sanders on, but still on moving at walking pace !!

 

Cheers,

Phil.
