24, 25 & 26 February 25
Recorded over three windy days!
The highlight of this recording is obviously the Rail Adventure 43s with a pair of hired 20s collecting a pair of barrier coaches at Eastriggs before bringing two Class 769 units for store at Rail Sidings Limited of Eastriggs. This was done over two days. On the third I briefly nipped into Carlisle to check the numbers of the Class 43s before they departed south taking the 20s to Kidderminster and the Severn Valley Railway.
I think it was unusual to see Class 20s other than on charters these days!
We also see a pair of Class 397s in the Down Loop at Quintinshill en route to Doncaster under their own power. A Rail Operations Group working.
A few other trains at Springfield and Quintinshill.
