As the winter weather slowly approaches near the end of October, the whole of South Wales has been placed into a two week 'fire break' lockdown.
Today at Pontypool & New Inn, I went up to the station to film the new One Wales Express set running on a test train from Cardiff Canton Sidings to Hereford, and return.
The stock comprises of a Transport for Wales liveried DVT (82216), four Mark 4 push button slide-door coaches that are off lease from LNER, and a Transport for Wales liveried DB Cargo Class 67 (67025). The new paintwork on both 67025 & 82216 look absolutely lovely indeed.
Once the loco and it's stock went up to Hereford, they would later return to Cardiff Canton Sidings, once again stopping for a few minutes as part of staff training that occurred during the two trips. 67025 then departs Pontypool, with 82216 seen being dragged at the rear.
Filmed on Monday 26th October, 2020.
