Staple southern fayre
This service has now been running for a month now (with the usual hiatus over Christmas) in its photography friendly path along the Coastway route. Surprisingly, only one class 66 to date has worked the service, being 59 hauled on all other occasions.
Maintaining the near class 59 monopoly, Genesee and Wyoming liveried 58203 hauls the 6O68 Westbury Tarmac to Crawley loaded stone on a cold but bright Wednesday 10 January 2023 into Havant station.
Curiously, the first half of the rake was empty, followed by a couple of boxes of small limestone aggregate, but the balance was a fine dark coloured finely crushed material that did not look like the usual carboniferous limestone material out of Merehead quarry
