At the end of July with the Weather Forecasters predicting what passes for summer ( A day when it expected that rain wont fall all day ) I decided to take a trip across the water to South Wales for an interlude of freight action and the load haul tug.... ( No potters wheels were anticipated however ( see http://www.whirligig-tv.co.uk/tv/history/interludes.htm for details)) On arrival at Undy the day started well with a Red team and Green team coal in sun. Of course the weather not to be outdone sent full summer weather my way so 60059 didnt sparking the heavy rain! However the clouds came and went and the odd shot in full sun resulted. One thing I did learn was Class 66s do clag!
A quick visit to Coed Kernew did provide any freight but 67025/67005 and 150121 proved the entertainment. As the sun was moving round the rest of the afternoon was spent at Duffryn where a selection of freights was to be had in full sun along with 57313. The final part of the day was spent at Undy where ESQ joined me and a selection freight and units presented themselves in full sun. Having departed early 60059 got held at Lydney so the sun came and went but eventually the beast was photted in milky sun
