66089, 09.36 Dollands Moor-DIRFT (6C24, 19E), Hyde Road bridge Having never actually photographed 66089 working a train (only having one photograph of it in Wembley Yard) I capture it twice in two days! Yesterday I saw it at Victoria bridge, see..... https://www.ontheupfast.com/p/21936chg/30015949282/x66089-11-38-wembley-dirft-6m45-victoria and today it is on the same train but with different timings and operating number. 66089 leads the 09.36 Dollands Moor to DIRFT (Daventry) bottled water train through Roade taken from the village's Hyde Road bridge running as 6C24. It is interesting today as it's on the down fast line thus taking the Weedon route to Rugby where the locomotive will run round to make the short journey to DIRFT entering from the north. This is one of the Class 66s still running in their original EWS 'Three Beasts' livery. Keywords: 66089 09.36 Dollands Moor-DIRFT 6C24 Hyde Road bridge EWS
