What a superb video Dave. It was great to see all those locos in action and well done for catching the 66301 naming ceremony with my boss as well 👍🏻

Thanks Ben,It was good to be able to cover it as I’ve not done much recently.It was a good day & a couple of good tip off’s re the naming of 301 & 202 leading as the driver wanted to drive a 59 rather than the 70 lol Full marks to JS as you don’t get many bosses so enthusiastic about there job & company😎👍🏼Cheers Dave👍🏼

8:00 Wow, that's quite severe subsidence on the track - or at least the camera makes it seem so! 🚂👍

Smashing footage, do those inter city MK2f and MK1 generator van belong to LSL ?

[@berksandhantsfreight]

Thanks very much.Yes I believe they are owned by LSL,they have quite a formidable fleet of locos & stock now.Cheers Dave😎👍🏼

[@southviewtmd]

Not LSL. Riviera Trains. They are kept at Burton on Trent.
