66955, 13.14 Willesden-Barrow Hill (6H50, 4L), site of Roade station
I had been tracking the progress of this one-off working
since it left Willesden Yard earlier in the afternoon. 66955 leads a long rake of MWA open wagons that were built at the Greenbrier Europe factory in Poland with the first ones being delivered back in 2016. They were not quite new builds as the bogies were largely recycled having been removed from redundant HHA coal hoppers. Many of the wagons in this rake were absolutely covered with graffiti whilst others were left untouched. The 6H50 13.14 Willesden to Barrow Hill working is seen passing Roade in lovely winter light. Thanks to Mike for the reporting number.
