Description
On the 29th of May 2024, 66750 ran into difficulties near Eynesford & it’s twin, 66851 was sent to rescue it. Firstly we see 66751 crossing over to the “wrong line” via the rarely used Otford ground frame, followed by it then heading up the down line. About an hour later we see the pair heading south through Shoreham working the 6O55 Daventry - Dollands Moor around 3 hours late. Very very nearly bowled by a 700 as you can hear in the background, I had to move positions on the platform!

Enjoy!
