990618 56054 Blindwells 10 May 1999 Keith Sanders

Back to the archives. Was this really 20 years ago?

 

56054 "British Steel Llanwern" on a train of loaded HAAs about to leave Blindwells Opencast Coal loading site for the short run to Cockenzie Power Station on 10 May 1999..

 

The loading plant was demolished 2 years later in July 2001 and the power station demolished in 2015. Even the viewpoint is now unusable owing to tree growth.

 

Thank goodnes for photographic records.
