Back to the GWML and onto a good classical favourite of Didcot Parkway! This was taken during the last days of the overtime ban on ASLEF Drivers so it's not as big as hoped but this is what I could garner from. Unfortunately, this was during the last day of the heavy winds and they certainly picked up during this one
Anyway you will see services from:
GWR (800, 802, 387)
CrossCountry XC (220, 221)
Freight from: DB Cargo UK, Freightliner, GBRF, Colas Rail (66) alongside DC Rail (60)
Couple of special ones in this one including:
66057 dragging 66014 to Bescot
66846 dragging fresh OTM DR75017 up to Kidderminster
DC Rails 60029 makes an appearance
Hope you enjoy it ;)

Hold on, I'm confused! To read The Guardian, the country's rail system is in a parlous state. And yet what I see here are fast trains, one after the other, sleek, heavy-duty rolling stock, no trafic jams, decent on-time performance . . . certainly puts the U.S. to shame; what am I missing? Great work, TS, and thank you!

Nationalisation, hope this helps 👍

Oh shit, I saw you trainspotting at Didcot! I saw the person who I assume was you filming but didn't want to get in your way so kept my distance

Which one were you? There were plenty of other spotters about that day as well so it was a bit all over.
