Despite the grey skies it had actually stopped raining on

arrival at Bristol Parkway. Freightliner's 66504 and 66589 are seen stabled in the sidings adjacent to the station. I have photographed both of these Class 66s close to home on the WCML such is their national operation. The more seasoned enthusiasts all remember the days of copping locomotives such as Class 47, 37 and 31 that were shedded away from our home areas that we would not normally see.
