Treck to Toton

Took a Day out to visit Toton today. Quite a good day, but was really quiet after 1530 due to a bridge bash. A few different sightings to the usual. They even plonked a Euro Shed on the Toton Bescot.
60073 made my day though... hellfire!.. u'll see why.....

Nice, but it seems, regardless where you go, its 66's, 66's, 66's....any chance of popping into a preserved railway to get some variety in your pics? You've definately got skill, but all your photos are beginning to look samey due to their content....theres only so many photos of a Class you can take!

Do kinda agree with Dave here, just going to "bash sheds" or "cop tugs" does get a bit boring. Even more passenger workings would be nice and some steam, well, that would be very nice. I think steam easily makes the best photos.

Please dont think i'm having a go at you, far from it, just making a friendly point.

Cheers

60078 is supposed to be there along with 60081 which did the same a couple of years ago.

my guess is there both in the part of toton that one cannot see.

there was one right at the back visable, which was with a shed and two skips. i'll try and enhance one of my photos of it in photoshop to see if i can ID it properly.
