Video – Kidderminster 06/06/18. 1501, 66763, 34027, 33108 and 73136 (and a crow)

After uploading a few mobile phone photos during my visit yesterday, here is the video. It probably was my last chance to see the 66 during this visit to the Railway, I chose this day as the 33 and 73 were also double-heading a service train.

Another marathon video, filmed from the footbridge, just 66763 on the freight in this video. 2857 will be seen in the second part, along with 66763 again, but that won’t finish uploading until late tonight.
