IN PART 3

Welcome to Part 3 โ€” the finale of my 4-hour trainspotting session at Nuneaton Station, filmed on 8th October 2025. This part captures the perfect mix of nostalgia and modern freight power, with everything from HST power cars at speed to Class 37s, Class 66s, Class 90s, and Class 88s in action along the West Coast Main Line.

๐Ÿš† Highlights include:

โšก 66421 on 4S44 and 88005 on 4M27 โ€“ classic DRS electric and diesel freight power at its best.

๐Ÿ’จ 43062 & 43014 on 1Q27 flying through Nuneaton โ€” pure nostalgia as HST power cars blast through like the old days!

๐Ÿ” 37510 on 5Q77 hauling Class 730223, before swapping ends and departing south โ€” complete with a rare coupling-up sequence.

๐Ÿš„ As 37510 departs, 90003 & 90049 thunder through on 4M63, creating a unique side-by-side moment rarely caught on camera.

๐Ÿ’ช 66623 on 6B71 powering through Platform 5, followed by 90021 returning on 0K90 light engine, and 66561 wrapping up the session on 4M91.

With a combination of diesel legends, electric haulers, HST speed, and heavy freight, this final part perfectly sums up why Nuneaton Station remains one of the best trainspotting hotspots on the West Coast Main Line.
