Description
Wednesday 29th July and I decided to do some filming in the evening. We have a selection of passenger and freight trains as well as a couple of loco moves. Some of the Avanti northbound trains were a bit late - delays occurring in the south, On the loco side, DRS sent a class 88 north under diesel power - maybe an issue to be fixed at Kingmoor TMD. DB Cargo were using their Coronation liveried Class 66 on the Seaforth intermodal.

Look out for some unusual grey painted 'containers' on the Hams Hall intermodal. Some seem like cages more for animals and others with lockable side doors as if for smaller valuable items.

The times shown on clips are for guidance only and shouldn't be taken as definitive.

Any observations are my own and not intended to show any authority and may show my misunderstanding.
