A week after bringing a rake of nine cut-down KEAs to Portbury, 66787 Three Bridges ASC returned on 11/02/2025, running light as 0B92 14:00 Cardiff Tidal-Portbury Automotive Terminal before working 6B92 16:49 Portbury-Margam. The latter working was reported as not loaded - the wait for GBRf's first actual steel slab working continues...
Having slowly crossed Ashton Junction level crossing, 787 accelerates past Bristol City’s Ashton Gate stadium (on the very left of this shot) whilst overtaken by YM17 FKH working a M2 service which had just traversed the dedicated Metrobus flyover (well, shared with Ashton Park pupils on their bikes using it as a shortcut home).
