66422 Passes 66109 at Springs Branch - 11th December 2024
The class 66 was working the Shap to Crewe stone train running slightly late here behind some Avanti trains dumped via the slows here too.
The reason for the shot so distant because of DB 66109 I was in the process of filming a mega MPV convoy drag that came down from Scotland on that day.
The video to the epic drag can be found below.
