Great Coates station, North East Lincolnshire.
Wednesday 10th November 2010.
Loco's & DMU's featured: DB Schenker Class 66's Nos. 66076 & 66125, Northern Rail Class 153 No. 153307, First TransPennine Express Class 170 No. 170301 & Class 185 No. 185107.
Another couple of video's from one of this year's Railhead Treatment Trains (RHTT) at Great Coates on a clear but cold morning, first though, 153307 arrives & departs on the 10:00 Barton on Humber to Cleethorpes service. Next, 185107 passes on the 10:28 Cleethorpes to Manchester Airport service, & then 170301 passes on a Manchester Airport to Cleethorpes service. Next we see 66076 leading on 3S13 Wakefield Kirkgate to Grimsby Town, with 66125 on the rear, passing eastbound. Lastly, 66125 leads on 3S14 Grimsby Town to Malton, with 66076 on the rear, passing westbound.
How often does the RHTT run to Grimsby? I've seen videos for the 5th, 8th and 10th of November.

@back2frinky It runs 3 days a week on Monday, Wednesday & Friday. Scheduled to arrive at Grimsby at 10:55, and depart at 11:13, but it can & sometimes does arrive & deapart early.

@Rickstew86 So is Friday 12th November the last day, or does the RHTT run for the whole of November?

@back2frinky It should run through until at least the first or second week in December. It all depends on how quickly the leaves fall, and how much the railhead can get contaminated, also. It should run for at least another 3 weeks, though.
