Description
60093 and 66221 top and tail their tracklaying train up the mostly single line
( in 2006) from Newport to Ebbw Vale. I first record it passing the road crossing and signal box at Risca and further long shots up the line all the way to the top of Ebbw Vale. Abercarn, Crumlin, Cwm and Aberbeeg. During the spring months I was fortunate that there were not many leaves on the trees to obscure the views of the track. Again, with the trains slow climb I was able to get ahead for those unique video clips..enjoy part 1
