Description
GBRF Celebrity liveried 66783 "The Flying Dustman" sporting Biffa livery heads north along the west coast main line and through Wigan North Western on the afternoon of Tuesday 13th February 2024.

66783 had been painted into a special livery to celebrate the launch of a new waste train service on behalf of Biffa. This loco isn't too common in the northwest so cool to see it again.

Today she was working the late running Hams Hall to Mossend container train running pretty much to time in great form.
