- We very rarely see the Carlisle to Chirk log train on the Mid Cheshire Line. It only comes this way, when it has been diverted due to the normal line being closed, and even then it's in darkness , late ar night.
First seen crossing the Viaduct at Northwich, is 66726 with the Biomass for Drax.Then less than 2 minutes later 70811 & 70817 pass in the opposite direction with the loaded logs. 6th May 2024
Excellent shots there Phil first up 726 and then as you say the double Colas Darth logs and yes very rare on the Cheshire lines, Kev caught them at Alti, and a great shot it was and i caught them at Levenshulme, without being bowled for once haha! As always awesome footage there, enjoyed cheers Nick.
Thanks Nick. 726 was a bonus. I first thought about going to Northwich station, but the biomass would have probably bowled me there. Seen Kev's video, will take a look at yours .
@@philclarke3203not put it out yet, am always the last haha, have a great day.
@RedShedNick haha, that's why I couldn't find it. Thanks, you too 😀
Wow a log train with both 70s
Very unusual along here
@@philclarke3203yep
Saw them at Stockport with the kids, great afternoon!!
Glad you had a great afternoon.This one must have one of the highlights.
Great footage of this rarity, and how brilliant it was that it was double headed as well. I saw them at Delamere, they were making an absolutely fantastic noise as they passed
Thanks. Even rarer to see any freight at Delamere! I would have gone up that way, if I'd had more time .

👍😀
Good captures and a good spot to film it.
Thanks David. Yes an interesting spot, and the place my railway interest began in the early 70s, from the school just behind. 😀
Very nice Phil a rare sight indeed.
Thanks Rick. Yes, had to log this one.🙄🤣
