Description
Turns out the Class 70 with the ballast train on Sunday 9th August, 2020, wasn't actually the final shot for the 'Covid-19 Trains' project. Two trains went through Pontypool & New Inn today, and so I decided to add them to the project as bonus videos.

The first shot, which will be the penultimate video of the project, was a red DB Cargo Class 66 (66085) on an early running steel freight train, heading from Margum T.C to Dee Marsh Reception Sdgs.

The second shot filmed, which will act as the final shot of the project, was both LMS 46100 'Royal Scot' & BR-Standard 70000 'Britannia' on a double header movement, heading from Bristol Barton Hill to Crewe H.S. They had just ran on yesterday's railtour 'The Devonian Express', and today were heading back up north through the Welsh Marches for future railtour usage.

Filmed by Thomas Coombes, on Thursday 13th August, 2020.
