20901 and 20905 in New Balfour Beatty Livery Working 6Z23 Through Water Orton

Another move to go and see was 20901 and 20905 working 6Z23 Nuneaton - Kings Norton, they had earlier in the day worked 6Z20 Kings Norton - Nuneaton. But having missed that move, I could get the return working.
We went to Water Orton for this move, I was stood on the bridge outside the entrance/exit to the station. Heard the sound of a 66 approaching just mere moments before the Choppers showed up. Thankfully the shed was on the line through platform 2. I think we can all agree though, I had a very close call here with a CrossCountry Turbostar, it approached just as the 20s were passing, I avoided bowlage for both 20s here.
also, I got a couple of shots of the move going away, apologizes for some blurriness though with the final shot, it was getting quite windy.
Both locos have very recently been repainted into Balfour Beatty livery which will see these 20s go on hire to them. These have become the second pairs of 20s to receive a Balfour Beatty livery, previously 20189 and 20142 were turned out in a similar livery. Never got those two in that livery though. This livery is bound to cause a stir for some, but I do quite like it, plenty of retro liveries around and I'm all hear for variety and a change.
Hope to see more of these two in the future in this livery.
