Appleby

Freightliner 66620 making good time through Appleby, on Saturday 8th February 2025, with 6E97 1100hrs New Biggin British Gypsum to Hunslet Yard. The last time a Gypsum train rattled through Appleby was October 2024 before the service was transferred from DB Cargo to Freightliner. They route the train via the Tyne Valley line to Kingmoor Yard, where the loco has to run round before heading back south down the S&C to the gypsum works at New Biggin. This particular working was to allow the rake of GBRF branded wagons to be serviced.
