This was a brilliant place Colin at any time of the day in the early days, locos coming and going all the time off the stabling point. I'm feeling depressed now, but thanks for sharing Mike.

A long day Colin! Finally viewed. It was well worth the wait! Said it before one of your finest! Absolutely amazing freight action from Newport and i recon it was one of the busiest areas in the UK. Its not bad nowadays but nothing compares with the late nineties. Great seeing all the sector liveries back then and great to see how 37254 in its Dutch livery was then and Colas rail now. Really enjoyed, more soon please! Cheers Nick.

So glad you enjoyed it Nick and i certainly miss those days of tractors and grids on every other freight.Thanks as always for watching and have a great week. p s i think you'll enjoy the next one just as much., cheers, Colin.

Another classic Colin. South Wales makes me upset to see how it is now compared to back then 😔

[@colingarwood9971]

Couldn't agree more Ben, Newport and Cardiff were meccas for freight back then. Thanks for watching mate, hope you're well, all the best, Colin.
