Description
πŸš‚ READING STATION RAILWAY ACTION | 6V70, CLASS 59s & 66s! πŸš‚

Join us at Reading Station over two evenings, filming between 17:00 and 18:30, as we capture some fantastic railway action including the return of 6V70 on both occasions!

Across the two evenings, we see four locomotives in total, with Freightliner 66952 making an appearance on both days β€” but with a different partner each time!

On the first evening, 66952 is seen leading 59201 on the impressive 6V70 working, with the pair hauling a mega rake of wagons through Reading.

Then, on the second evening, 66952 returns β€” this time tucked behind 59001, wearing its impressive livery inspired by the locomotive’s original Yeoman livery, but given a modern Heavy Haul twist. πŸ˜πŸš‚

But it’s not all about the freight! Throughout both evenings, we also capture plenty of passenger services passing through Reading, along with a light engine working heading back towards Acton from Westbury.

πŸŽ₯ Filmed at Reading Station over two evenings | 17:00–18:30
