Oldfield Park 8.3.08




Title:
Oldfield Park 8.3.08

Description:
45 Minutes at Oldfield Park to see 60012 working 6B33 Theale-Margam, unusually this freight ran 20 minutes early which took us completely by suprise! Silverlink 150 was on a Stopping service along with a fair few HSTs. Only 2 2tones from the drivers but the 2 we recieved were very good so they made up for the rest! One driver needs to seriously sort himself out! All we wanted was a horn but he put his 2 fingers up to us! Fairly offensive and bang out of order! Hope you agree with me!

This was a Saturday so plenty of diverts were heading through this stretch of track including more freight and hsts. Units often pass here on Portsmouth-Cardiffs but the stoppers are often Weymouth-Gloucester etc.. hsts are seen passing at a slow but steady speed with the struggling of getting around the illusive curves. 159s are used on the route for ...
