Sundays are generally accepted as a day when bugger all happens on the railway, except the occasional appearance of an engineers train, so it was pleasing to learn that the
Burngullow empties were running down in an earlier slot today from Stoke Gifford, vice London, and managed to coincide with yet another clear evening! I was undecided for a
location but knew Stoke Canon would be good for the light angle, unfortunately let down by a rubbish background. Had this been running about 30 minutes earlier I would have
braved the midges just around the corner! 66605 hastily passes Stoke Canon with the 6C58 Stoke Gifford to Burngullow stone empties in some fantastic evening light.
