“Brand New Class 93s + Classic 37s! South Wigston Freight Action 01/10/25”

Welcome back to the channel! In this video we’ve got some rare and exciting trainspotting action filmed across Leicestershire on 1st October 2025, including exclusive footage of two brand-new Class 93 locomotives — 93008 and 93009. Filmed at an undisclosed location while at work (a true perk of the job!), these modern Stadler tri-mode locos are a real highlight for UK rail enthusiasts and a sign of the future of British rail freight.

The action continues from South Wigston Station with a packed few hours of special movements and mainline freight:

Class 37s — 37423 and 37901 on 0Z37 heading for the Severn Valley Railway Class 37 Gala 🎉

Class 60 — 60055 on 0D62 light engine, nearly photobombed by 66311 on 4M23 passing in the opposite direction!

Class 66/3 — 66305 on 4M29, a familiar sight on the Midland Main Line

Class 66/7 — 66760 on 4L53, captured in perfect light

Class 66/3 — 66308 on 4L07 closing the session with another solid freight working

This video is a great mix of brand-new locomotives, classic traction, and modern freight workings, making it a must-watch for anyone who loves UK railways, trainspotting, freight trains, and loco action.
