Description
Today we headed to Bristol Temple Meads as 57305 was deployed from Leicester, to retrieve the two latest GBRf arrivals, brand new Stadler Tri-mode class 99s, 99005 and 99006 which came off of a ship from Spain last week and headed with the bodysnatcher forming 0Q33 Portbury to Leicester L.I.P. Great to see the synergy between old and new as the newest locomotives on Britain's national network made a brief short under the historic recently refurbished trainshed roof at Bristol Temple Meads. | 25.02.2026
