Promising Prometheus
New Direct Rail Services Class 88, 88002 "Prometheus", passes through Winsford on the return leg of its first loaded test run from Carlisle N.Y. to Crewe Gresty Green Up Loop and return; hauling c.1,500 tonnes of ballast.
DRS Class 68, 68025 "Superb" tucked in behind as "insurance", but given the working was almost 40 mins Early by the time it reached Preston, suggests 88002 didn't require any assistance.
The return leg was running as 6Z89 10:53 Crewe Gresty Up Loop to Carlisle New Yard.
