A day's outing to Acton Bridge produced some good freight action, and also some interesting light engine movements.

DB Schenker 66152 (in new DBS livery), various freight trains and the rare appearance of NXEA 90004 on West Coast metals provided some good excitement!

Thanks to Aaron Roberts (Woolybak8) and Mike Williams (HSTMike125) for the company and laughs.
