Go West
After a long dull winter, it was good to get out for some photography at the beginning of March and the Berks and Hants was an obvious target, especially as I haven't done much at the west end of the line at this time of year.An early start on 3 March 2025 got me to Edington in time to catch 66533 and 66416 passing with 6A40, the 08:40 stone train from Merehead Quarry to Hanwell Bridge Loop, conveying portions for both Harlow Mill and Tolworth on this occasion.
