    Great shots. I note that the Lawley St to Felixstowe was nearly empty but the Lawley St to London Gateway was nearly full. Gateway doing a lot more trade now. Let's hope things continue to pick up.

      Yes Alan it doesn't look good with some of these empty container trains traveling the country, but I did read that they were expecting that to happen to and from Felixstowe, but not from Southampton.
      So as you say lets hope things improve in the coming months. Thanks for your interest Alan regards Mike

    Thank you so much Mike for the number..... It was DEFINITELY a Colas class 56 at Bescot. It was parked up in the middle. I saw it after I tipped at West Brom, that was about 11ish and it was still there at roughly 15.00 hrs, cos I was on my way back after picking up a loaded trailer from Ellesmere Port and I was heading back to the yard bud..... Thank you very much Mike. With kindest regards from Nige.

    I appreciate your help, kindness and understanding towards me Mike.... Perhaps it's my eyesight but I have to confess to you that I can't see the difference between a class 56 and the class 69.... Except it's black, or gun metal grey..... But I'm afraid I'm not up to date with locos. Except I enjoy railways, freight locos and...... Collecting numbers..... I stopped collecting numbers back in, probably the mid 80s but I have always had an interest in railways.... Its only in the last couple of years that I have started collecting numbers again.... But with my line of work, I know that I can never fill my book with every single number on the UK rail network. But I, like you enjoy my hobby and appreciate your help and understanding towards me Mike.

    • @antman09ful1

I wish the railway companies would print the loco numbers in BIGGER DIGITS... I saw a class 56 today at Bescot while I was driving on the M5 M6 split.... The class 56 just as well not of had a flippin number cos I couldn't see the flippin thing!!! Stay safe my friend...... NOT LONG NOW bud.

    A truly amazing video for me particularly the shot at 4.0 with that lovely old wall I last saw 55 years ago. Fantastic memories of Water Orton junction when it used to be Up and Down Leicester, Up and Down Derby at the east end and Up and Down Fast and Up and Down goods at the west end. It was arranged in such a way we could have three trains passing the box at once.

    Terrible sight seeing the Mk3 coaches going for scrap. Some heritage railways ought to have them instead of the rust buckets most use for tourists.
