RMweb Premium newbryford Posted February 2 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 2 (edited) *I think* this may be the first working of a Class 60 to/from Arcow quarry - and possibly the first 60 on HYA/IIA shorty hoppers.

Steadfast Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 A throwback to the heady days of 2019, uploaded to Flickr a couple of days back. At the time, with a trio of 60s working in the area, this wasn't a particularly unusual sight, you just needed to time it right. 60044 in the background has been run round and is ready to depart for the quarries (I think it's 6V62 Southampton - Whatley) and 60039 is stabled after a day's shunting the yard. Despite most of the overhauled 60s looking the same when they left Toton, by this time there was quite a few little variations, such as the branding. 60044 has had the Schenker removed, leaving a small DB logo, whereas 60039 has been rebranded with a DB large logo. 60024 was the other 60 working off Westbury and the quarries, in what turned out to be their swansong in the area. Sadly, something never to he repeated. Jo 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woke up early and couldn't get back to sleep so made the most of the sun. I didn't expect to have to scrape the ice off the car today! DC Rail's 60046 approaches Keynsham working 6Z51 Tytherington - Appleford. Not something I do often, but a telegraph wire has been edited out.
