JL - 20.9.21 66702 6E69 Ribblehead VQ - Hunslet, Ribblehead

The main target of the afternoon today was the first 2021 run of the very infrequent stone working out of Ribblehead virtual quarry. These days it's a GBRf job and 66702 'Blue Lightening' had worked up from Tuebrook sidings in Liverpool very early this morning. Seen passing adjacent to its point of origin and fully loaded with 6mm gauge stone chippings 6E69 Ribblehead VQ - Hunslet brings some welcome additional freight to S&C metals.
