70000 ‘Britannia’ chimes the Welsh Marches again! - Wednesday 04/05/2022

Only on her second trip after an overhaul, 70000 'Britannia' chimes at the whistle board just north of Ponthir while hauling Saphos trains 'The Welsh Marches Express' return working from Cardiff to Crewe, from where the rest of the journey to East Midlands Parkway would be diesel hauled.

Bring back childhood memories, out with my Ian Allan books taking loco numbers. The Midland compound 1000 was my favourite.
