Monthly Borderlands Line Review
Steel Traffic
Dominant by DB Cargo Class 66’6s during the month, all locomotives have been regeared and seem to be performing well on a over 2k ton load from Margam in South Wales up to Tata Steel in Shotton North Wales (Dee Marsh Junction)
Cement Traffic
Early change of locomotive beginning of the month, 66741 travelled from Tuebrook Sdgs to take control of the cement working to Avonmouth throughout February, maxed out to the scheduled 13 wagons
RTC
Pair of Colas tractors 37116 & 37219 did the honours this month with the 1Q41 from Derby RTC
