Four Freight Trains at Bamfurlong - 08th August 2024
We get classes 60,66,325 on show here with the highlight being Beacon Rail liveried GBRF 66791 hauling some new rails on hire to Colas running from Crewe to Bootle in Cumbria.
The rain was rather pleasant in the hot weather although it's always causes havoc with soaking mud camera and smudging my works. I stood far from the 60 as 66791 was seconds away and I wanted that train specifically.
