Another interesting clip from one of my days at Newport. It was never dull there, and the journey never wasted. Here is varied action, including a nice 56 on steel.
It's really odd seeing Godfrey Road sidings again after all these years -- I now work for ATW as a steward and our office / depot building is on Platform 4, just approximately where that fellah in the orange hi-viz jacket is standing at 1:42
Yes, it's strange - that's the one I didn't put in the "fix" for WS for YT but just saved it in the normal way I used to for 4:3 films. I'll just never understand Windows or PCs generally!

Yes, I know the feeling - "it can't be real!"

True. Nowadays an unbroken succession of 66s is considered good!
