Colas Rail 66845 passes through Ribblehead station at 14.54 on the 6J37 12.29 Carlisle Yard to Chirk timber train, a regular service on this route, and one that Colas have made their own, ever since they started up. This loco was formerly Direct Rail Services 66410, with later operated with Advenza Railfreight as 66845, was acquired by Colas after that company was wound-up, and is now GBRf no. 66746. A loco possibly with an identity crisis!
