The afternoon sun glints off the side of 66083, nice. What isn't so nice is the residents of North Queensferry complained about small coal particles raining down from passing trains. So now they are coated with a sticky gel to stop this happening. You just can't make it up can you?!
The passage of the coal trains break up the monotony of the procession of turbostars and sprinters. 66126 fronts 6J15 1500 Longannet to Hunterston.
Virgin Cross Country unit 221143 heads out over the water on the south viaduct with 1S54 1203 Birmingham New Street to Aberdeen.
