6Z23 2013 Appleford Sidings to Tytherington

Part 4 - Having disposed of the stone collected from Tytherington Quarry earlier in the day DCR 60055 "Thomas Barnado" commences the next repeat circuit as it is seen departing Hanson's complex at Appleford Level Crossing.

Various other freights are seen on the mainline as I awaited the Class 60 action.

The video complements my three earlier ones recorded at the western end of this DCR diagrams route:

Part 1 - DCR's 60029 "Ben Nevis" is seen hauling the empties up Horfield Bank, taking the frieght only branch at Yate, and then loading & running around at Hanson's Tytherington Quarry.

Part 2 - DCR's 60029 "Ben Nevis" is seen hauling the loaded service through Iron Acton and then arriving back at Yate, where it is held to allow a Class 60 hauled Westerliegh Oil Terminal service pass, before departing towards Bristol.

Part 3 - DCR's 60029 "Ben Nevis" is seen with it's loaded train arrive at, run around and eventually depart from Bristol Parkway.
