Powerhaul 70 Pey Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 ironically the crossing you can see in the background of your pic is the one i had a lorry ignore the lights and cross in front of me when i was collecting a couple of 70s from seaforth, i got down and "had a word" as he'd stopped at the weighbridge alongside the tracks, the whole thing was witnessed by the head of safety for peel ports too! im sure mike delamar can answer this, does the 66 bank the train up to walton as it were or the 59 do all the work Yes I remember your post about that incident! The 66's engine on the rear was running and I am sure there was a driver in the cab of 66718 if this helps answer your question. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgie!! Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 GBRF 66718 passed through Brighouse station today at 13:07 I'm not too sure on the working 4M51, I think. Was running from Drax Aes to Liverpool Biomass Terminal. Was the first time I have seen this loco and looked pretty awesome in the livery, also the biomass wagons seem very quiet. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
