Classic Convoy 20096/20107 with 37703, 20302 & 20305 at Wigan - 28th January 2022
Locomotive Services Limited existing class 20 locomotives 20096 (D8096) and 20107 (D8107) lead a convoy with LSL's latest acquisitions from DRS, 20302 and 20305 with (HNRC's) 37703 also just acquired from DRS. The tractor was sandwiched in between the pairs of choppers apparently heading for Barrow Hill on the late running move south from the Bo'ness railway in Scotland to Crewe.
The train was looped at Grayrigg and or Oxenholme losing time. But worked fine as on-time as booked wouid of been a bowlege chance.
The train was running incredibly slow through the station and would shortly cross onto the slow lines to allow passenger trains to overtake. Logic would of run her fast to Warrington. Instead we get a great long look at the convoy with as typical chibble thrash from the choppers once in full darkness out of the station I hope you can hear it as it was wonderful to hear .
