4R51 doing the 0.5mph turn under the hopper.
for those who dont know the wagons are 'armed' with a key and once armed as they pass magnets at strategic points the top doors open.
magnets further along then close the doors.
a similar arrangement for unloading at Drax with the bottom doors.
it's all very clever.
66175 Railriders doing the honours and after loading loading will form 6H77 1615 to Drax.

I've always had a connection with Toton TMD, from visits with my Dad when he went there for work, to my many visits later for photography work which I was lucky to be asked to do, ending up living in the village (Yeah, I'm the idiot..) and running a webpage with the name.. I've also been lucky to attend the two staff open days last year & this, managing to gain a place through RailRiders this year to be able to partake in the guided tour around.
So this has afforded the possibility of a then and now view of the inside of the shed, from 1987 with 58s, 56,s & a 31, and this year with 66s and a 60. I know which one I prefer...
