GBRF66 and FGW Mk3's

Post by Rich_Eason »

Walking over the footbridge at FAW yesterday 15:30, I caught a glimps of what looked like a GBRF 66 with a long rakle of FGW Mk3's moving very slowly along one leg of the Filton Triangle behind Filton High School.

Is this new refurbed stock being moved..or were my eyes decieving me?

Anyone know any more about this any pics?

Been quite a good week for spots at FAW this week!

Ah I knew I could rely on you guys!

From what I saw from about a mile away they all looked including the loco pretty clean!

It was crawling though, as when I walked through the station there was already a 158 ahead of it and as that pulled away it had a Red light just after pulling away from FAW and stopped.
