@@railfreightdrivergallagherGBRf Thank you Drivergallagher. Was difficult at times to film with the wind blowing (Even tucked into the side of the hedge at one point for protection) on the freight only bridge !! Didn’t think it turned out that bad in the end
DBC no longer have 60's in traffic, and have regeared several 66's. Only DCR & us at GBRf currently operate the Tugs. We are due to increase our fleet by another 10 soon, plus 12 locos are to be rebuilt at Loughborough soon,but re-engined with Catapillar power units as in the DRS class 68's. Also one prototype 'Steam Generator' class 60 is proposed! HTH. JG.
@railfreightdrivergallagherGBRf Very interesting news !! Thanks for the update. Gather the 10 are the DB tugs taken out of service. The new project for 60014 I gather will start when the Class 69’s are finished. Any news on 56081
Superb footage as always Arthur. Excellent. JG.

Great shots Arthur especially the two 37s and the double 66 in perfect sunlight 😎 Have to try that Deep Dale Lane bridge, also looks a good location 👍
Think it’s one of the best positions in the area as you can film from both sides. Recommend 👍
Most enjoyable that Mate 👍👍
@@37418 Enjoyed the day out 👍
Nice video and great locations! Does anyone know what was being carried by 66762 & 66747 at 6:24?
Front section is the weed killer train if that helps
@@arthurgrowler5749 Ah thank you. It looks like some sort of steam chamber!
So have the 60’s been relieved of their duties on the oil tankers? Not seen one on the service for a long while now.
They have been taken out of service now. DB are upgrading a fleet of about 12 to same spec.
