Conversation stopper
With a sight and sound that commands attention from even the hardiest of souls, Colas unit 70810 powers up and accelerates her train of log carriers through Preston station on an autumnal Sunday afternoon last year.
The working is the 10.30am Chirk Kronospan - Carlisle Yard (6C37) and, as often seems to be the case, empty wagons make more of a commotion rattling around than they do fully loaded. In this case, under the enclosed and echoey roof, there certainly wasn't much scope for meaningful conversation until the train had passed.
This is the sister shot to the more conventional 'Log Rhythms' posted a few weeks ago. I figured this one merited its own outing.
