They were used on flask traffic right up until BR ceased freight operations...... I think Transrail kept using them as well, probably finished when DRS took over......
The track is canted for high speed Inter-City running. Freight traffic leaving the yard comes out slow, so has no problem with the adversed canted track. Have you seen my previous upload from here in 1988? See it here ruclips.net/video/zKK3YLMoGCU/видео.html

Great freight footage,thanks. I love the two Gronks; end of shift and of t'pub (stable point).
That nuclear train was so cool and amazing that brake vans were still in use in the 90's.
