A 60 makes a shunt.


Brush Class 60 60005 draws forward from Walsall Cement Terminal towards the Express Freight Terminal (Tasker Street) while shunting todays 6M82. This view through the foliage was seen from the Corporation St. overbridge. A Freightliner Heavy Haul service from Rugeley Power Station is passing on the up fast on route to Bescot up goods to run round.


Tasker Street sees no regular traffic now, (Apart from the moves from the cement). The last service being the Walsall to Aberdeen DHL run which finished a couple of years ago.

A difficult side of the bridge to shoot from, though there is a gap in the fence !

Indeed there is! That gap gave just the right view.
