Description
In November 2000 I spent 2 days recording the unloading of 66602/519/604/520 plus 66601/603/606/605 and made one of my favorite sequences as they left the docks in two convoys which I caught in the docks and also their arrival at the mainline at Alexandra Docks Junction. Thanks again to all concerned for the access. I've re edited these clips for those who missed the first download.
