69012 at Tonbridge West Yard + Aviation Fuel Trains

Published 2024-07-14
In this video I take a trip down to Tonbridge West Yard GBRf to see the latest addition to GBRailfreight's Class 69 fleet. This being 69012 named Falcon 2. An interesting livery based of the original Class 53 locomotive named Falcon. This locomotive was also a prototype for the famous Class 47 alongside two other prototypes named Lion and Kestrel.

Anyway, as a bonus in this video, I managed to capture two workings of the aviation fuel trains that run down in the southeast to serve Heathrow Airport.

I hope you enjoy this video and thanks for watching!
