Glad you enjoyed it.

Great footage & pub lunch & beer before a trip to Stafford sounds good. Stafford is usually busy and offers something. My first all nighter was here back in the day.

Well it made a great day a better day Andrew, thank you for taking a look. ATB. Mike.

If you posted the trains in chronological order, the freight at 09:10 was 4M88 Felixstowe - Ditton O'Connor.

Yes it was, I didn’t realise I never finished the working info on the video.

A well made video with plenty of freight documented and no bendy pendies.

Great comment as you know I don’t like them things you call pennies. ATB Mike.

All those lovely overhead wires, yet so few trains make use of them. I did like the mail train with its two pantographs.

You are right John we should use more electric locos we’re the yards are wired up. Thanks for your interest in my video.

I shouldnt think there is anywhere on the network that is busier for freight than Stafford.

Well yes Steve Stafford is very good, but locally to me I have Water Orton and Tamworth which is good at times. Thanks for watching Steve. Mike.

Well that was certainly a busy spell for freight Mike - I guess mid-afternoon to early evening from the workings? Good variety of locos and liveries there.

Just caught up with this one Mike and glad i never missed it. 2 x 68's on 2 different freights as rare as hens teeth and plenty of engineers traffic to break up the procession of containers made for an excelent video. Stafford never fails to deliver the goods ( pun intended lol ) Thanks for showing Mike, ATB Colin.

Hi Colin, you are right it’s a good place if you get there at the right time, if there are some extras it’s a really great station. Thanks for finding and watching my video Colin. That care Mike.

You have surprised me Ben, I know you haven’t since I’ve known you but I assumed you had about four years ago. Well you know the score as you have watched the two evening from me from this year. Cheers.

Used to be a frequent user of trains from Stafford until 2 years ago - mid afternoon to late evenings were always busy, good to see the railways in use by so much freight. WCML between Stafford and Crewe must be nearly at full capacity again?
