Stone trains are not particularly common on the WCML so to capture one on film (or digitally to put it correctly)! Is always a rewarding one. The 6H50 is a regular empty stone working that leaves Willesden up relief sidings at 13.21 and ends up at Tunstead in the Peak District. The working is in association with HS2 works in West London so will end sometime in the not so near (!) future so I will try to get out to see it when I can. However, at the time of writing in 2023, it has just been reported that the development and opening of the new Euston will not be before 2042 an eye-watering twenty-one years away! In this scene at Victoria bridge just south of Roade 66602 leads the train.
