I filmed these trains from 07.00 to 08.45 then got the train home for breakfast. 16/03/22 It was a nice calm morning which was a bonus weather wise. 66541 was going to London Gateway and not Felixstowe.

Mike what an advert for UK railfreight this video is. I know it's sporadic and not always like this at most places but sometimes you get these 1 or 2 hours of great action. Top video, as always first class from you 👍🏻

Thanks Ben your comments I really do appreciate, I think I had a bit of good luck that morning with the extra workings but yes you are right from a advert point of view.

Hi Mike great video, you wouldn't expect to see that many freights in 95 minutes anywhere these days. I thought the 777 move was a great catch. Thanks for showing.
@antman09ful12 жыл бұрын
Colin it looked like I picked the right morning to get up early, not seen any class 777 moves from the south before. I was well pleased with the extra working I got. Cheers Mike.

Great video Mike, that was the busiest I've seen Northampton in such a short time period for freight! Good catch with the Merseyrail units and the 87 too. Regards, Andrew.

Spectacular that Mike! Wow it was busy haha! Magnificent shots and captures there! Superb sounds and workings! Amazing action and variety! I loved the top and tailed engineer with the autoballasters! Nice 777 drag, they only come round here (the closest they come to here is Kirby) at the most terrible times unfortunately! Some of the shots you get Mike are wonderful! Great stuff! Top class! No faults at all! Well done! Great work! Excellent detailing and camera work and detail! Very busy there, you chose a good time to go! 66541 was also great, 66559 sounded awesome! and same with the Very nice indeed! Looooooooooooooooved it! Really enjoyed, thanks for sharing!
