Description
A rare day of DB Cargo Class 66/6 activity filmed entirely at Cheltenham and Gloucester. This video features 66658 and 66659 in action, with 66660 also working between Margam and Round Oak on 6M41 β€” though unfortunately not captured on this occasion.

It’s exceptionally unusual for 6M11, 6M81, and 6M41 to all run on the same day, making this a standout event for UK freight enthusiasts.

The main working shown here is 6Q38 09:15 Old Dalby – Pengam Sidings, conveying Class 398 unit 398017 for Transport for Wales (TfW) β€” one of the latest Stadler-built Metro units being delivered for the South Wales Metro project.
