With the rear of the train out of sight, Class 60 No 60034 'Carnedd Llewelyn' heads up its very lengthy consist of loaded Cargowagons into Prologis Park, Coventry on 5th June 2007. The train is fully loaded with mineral water from France which comes to Coventry for onward distribution in the UK by road. The steep incline of the branch line to Prologis Park (site of Kerseley colliery) provided a challenge for such a heavy train - requiring a spirited climb, which at the original timing of the early morning run provided an early morning call to nearby residents! Later workings fell into the hands of the EWS Class 66's, which run the train in two portions rather than the 'one' run the 60's handled.
