Description
Balfour Beatty class 20 locomotives 20901 & 20905 head south along the west coast main line and through Springs Branch south of Wigan on Monday 12th August 2024.

The choppers in there rather smart white and blue livery were hauling the drainage cleaning train from Carlisle down to Crewe. Having been cancelled a few days earlier it was nice she was catch it here.

The train left Carlisle a few minutes late but thanks for being looped at least once for passenger trains she was 43 late here but sounding absolutely sublime with the rather classic chibble soundtrack.
