72. A few freights-19.11.21

THE ARCHIVE FILES > Archive-2021 > 72. A few freights-19.11.21
On a dull November afternoon, I took a walk across the fields from home at about the time that there is a burst of freight activity - according to the working timetable at least! Luckily today, everything ran to time so I was able to bag five freights in less than an hour to then head home for tea and cake!

221107 & 221101, VT 08.52 Edinburgh Waverley-London Euston (9M52, 3L), Victoria bridge 
 Love or hate them get your photographs of the Avanti West Coast Voyagers in whilst you can! They will not be around for very much longer on this route with the arrival of the new bi-mode units being constructed at the moment. 221107 and 221101 pass Victoria bridge working the 9M52 08.52 Edinburgh to Euston service. Hopefully, the new trains will bring an end to a crazy situation such as this, namely, a pair of fuel-hungry diesel units running for four hundred miles entirely under fully energized 25kV wiring!

66419, 12.16 Lawley Street-London Gateway (4L46, 4E), Victoria bridge 
 Freight three - 14.26 - the 12.16 Lawley Street to London Gateway 4L46 service passes Victoria bridge led by 66419. With the increasing number of Class 66s being outshopped in the Freightliner version of the Genesee & Wyoming livery, the quality of photographs on days such as this has improved considerably!
