Its Colas honestly! Class 70 bursts into Preston Station: A Few Hours at Preston Station

13 March 24

I hadn't planned to be in Preston again but circumstances dictated otherwise. Nor had I had a look at RealTime Trains to see what would be running so it was pot luck!

I was delighted almost straight away to see a Class 70 hauling tanks up the 1:29 from the Preston Dock branch. As a bonus, the loco, although in Freightliner livery, is on lease to Colas.

Another surprise was to see the grey 805002 again on a working from Lancaster.

Lots of other pasenger trains going backwards and forwards.
