Twerton Tunnel 14.7.09

A fabulous day down the Tunnel with 5 Sheds! Plenty of the usual passenger traffic also keeping my company with some very good drivers today!
The Freight consisted of:
59202 6Z83 Machen-West Drayton, 47 late
66623 0M22 Kingsland Road-Westbury, on time
66520 4V60 Calvert-Bristol, 9 late
66185 6B65 Westbury-ADJ, 38 late
66110 6V62 Fawley-Tavistock, 58 early.
All the Class 66s with lovely 2tones.
HSTs, 158s, 159s, 150s and 153s complete the remainder of the video, with my first sighting of 43056 and 43053 within 25 minutes of eachother!
Enjoy!

Great vid! Great to view my old East coast racehorses back in traffic, 43053 and 056,sounding beastly too! 5*

Thats a heck lod of tones! Well done man!
Some of those hsts are starting to sound better too! 5* XD

[@hstman14]

Thanks! Indeed the MTUs are magnificent engines and sound super, especially when accelerating. Indeed this day is officially the day for the year I completed all FGW power cars. :) Can't get rid of the pair now, see them all the time, even been on 056!

[@hstman14]

Indeed, had haulage on 056, sounds very nice indeed. Haven't seen either in a while, although i hear they are both out doing well, earning good revenue for FGW!

Some sort of bug that decided my lense was its new home! Typical and thanks!
