(1) The Rail Head Treatment Trains is back for the 2022 season, and this year DB Cargo provide Class 66s nos. 66129 and 66069 for this intensive programme of services. No. 66129 still carries the full EWS livery with no reference to DB at all, whereas as no. 66069 is in full DB Cargo red, although the grime caused by the water spray will soon change that! At 12.11 the 3J13 08.46 Westbury to St. Blazey L.I.P. leaves the loop lines at Silk Mills and joins the double track mainline west, the water sprays having just been switched on.
