Description
GBRF Class 66 locomotive 66746 wearing the smart Belmond Royal Scotsman livery is seen speeding south along the west coast main line and through Springs Branch south of Wigan on the miserable and rainy afternoon of Monday 1st December 2025.

The class 66 locomotive was working a Mossend to Doncaster container train which was running over 2 hours late through as often the case chaos on the west coast main line.

This one hasn't been through Wigan in a long while so pleased to tick it off the list again.
