At 10.05 EWS Class 60 no. 60035 "Florence Nightingale", wearing the triple grey colour of its former BR sector livery, rolls through the station with 6B13 05.36 Robeston to Westerleigh "Murco" oil tanks, Loaded TEA wagons for the distribution terminal near Bristol. It's worth noting that after all this time this train still runs, with the same headcode, to almost the same timings, and still with a Class 60 as its main power. With all the changes that the railways have been going through all these years, I find it remarkable, but pleasing, to see that some things can be relied upon. For now.
