The delightful location of Pill village in North Somerset provides the setting for an immaculate 'DB Cargo UK' Class 66/6 No. 66651 which is photographed hauling the 10:22 Margam-Portbury Dock steel empties on a very hot and sunny 27th June 2024. This locomotive which was formerly Class 66/0 No. 66221 recently underwent alterations to its gearing to afford greater haulage capability, and would no doubt benefit from the alteration when hauling the heavy 17:59 Portbury-Margam loaded steel slab working later that day.
