Freight trains versus drone
Can a drone elevate your locomotive photography and videography?
We see the brilliant DJI Air 3 s in action over Foxlow junction, Slittingmill viaduct and Barrow Hill Sidings, just north of Chesterfield.
We start at the former with a DRS container from Daventry to Doncaster, followed by GBRf class 69 012 Falcon 2, on her way to Toton.
Freightliner class 70 002, with class 66 953, in behind, storm through Foxlow on her way to Leeds FLT,as class 37 419, in her new livery, heads for Derby RTC.
Rail Operations Group, class 93 007 heads back from Tyseley, as the Midland Pullman powers over Slittingmill viaduct with a railtour to Swansea.
In their new livery classes 66 710 and 719 leave Doncaster Roberts road and head for the Severn Valley Railway. Class 66 618 and class 66 424, are seen at Barrow Hill
