What's better than a 70? A 70 lifting 1600+ tonnes from a standing start away from Heeley Loop. It's uphill all the way here!
70008 puts in appearance on 6M06 Maltby Colliery to Hope Earles Sidings. I wanna say this is a flyash train?

I worked at a coal plant. Their first concern was the flyash they were selling. No concern over three rows of trees stark white and dead due to leaking pits. Had argument with their salesman about elec. Power. Her defense it was the cleanest fuel, my rebuttle, except for the sun and wind.
