A great video collection of these trains. Ive lived in Reading from the North East for the last 42 years, and have always wondered where the double headed class 33 and dipped cement wagons came from and their destination. I seem to remember they picked up the Reading to Wokingham line,but where next.

[@spompey]

Most likely the South East Kent area and also for Meldon Quarry in Devon near Okehampton....Many thanks....Mark

Precious footage what trains should sound like loved the sound of that labouring 37 with them tanks sounded like they were fully laden with fuel

[@spompey]

I believe the fuel tanks were bound for Micheldever.? You're very welcome and many thanks for watching and best regards....Mark
