I t was always my intentions after photting 6V62 earlier ,to move to Dunsomer Hill for the test train,however on arrival I learnt that 60095 had failed in the Goring and Streatley area on 6V62 and Swindon Thunderbird 66848 had been sent to the rescue,so another unexpected stab at the Tilbury to Llanwern steel empties was achieved,with 66848 and failed 60095 passes 104Mins late.

The last shot off the day,proved to be no different to the previous ones,ie sunshine was a close call,and with a late running 4O09 liner,being held again for the Reading to Basingstoke unit,the cloud was fast approaching as it final y appeared with hired in 66848 hauling the Trafford Park to Southampton liner passing Silchester.

I cannot recall the last time I took a shot off ANYTHING loco hauled coming under Battledown flyover,probably ,going back to Cromptons etc on the Waterloo to Exeter/Salisbury workings ,but due to the Hoo to Eastleigh running in a later path,and for some reason diverted via Andover ,the opportunity arose to rectify this,and 66847 obliges with 6Y42

Having worked to Wimbledon previously with IHA steel wagons and MJA box wagons to act as barriers in a unit movement,66850 finds itself returning with the same consist ,having never been used due to coupling issues.Freight on the Basingstoke to Salisbury line is sparce to say the least so a Saturday turn was most welcome.The Colas 66 passes Wyke,nr Andover with 6z66..13.10 Wimbledon Park to LLanwern,with the box wagons being dropped off at Barton Hill enroute.The rail lengths in the pictures should have been part of a previous engineering weekend to lower the trackbed ,allowing containers to pass under the roadbridge,where this picture was taken,but seemingley no work carried out due to loco shortages.
