Big Freight 9

A Train Crazy production in co-operation with Videoscene and in association and assistance of Freightmaster with over 2 hours of the best freight action in the UK. Features include class 37 number 37419 and its epic trip to Mallaig with a ballast train in stunning West Highland winter weather of snow-capped peaks and brilliant sunshine. Part three of our look at the Fiddlers Ferry to Liverpool coal circuit with Class 60s on the freight-only Bootle branch to the docks. Footage from Peak Forest and various locations in Scotland with heavy freight battling the worst of the snowy weather conditions. Action from a number of Freightmaster hotspots including a summer and winter visit to Colton Junction, Crewe Basford Hall, Float Viaduct at Carstairs, the Great Eastern main line, and a look at the many container trains that run on the Felixstowe branch. All this plus a number of unusual workings including engineers trains, Network rail measurement trains, and the day 37610 and 37605 worked the 4S44 Daventry to Coatbridge intermodal. This is all brand-new footage, filmed in the summer, autumn, and winter of 2012 and into the spring of 2013.
