As I’m now on my weekly leave I won’t be working anymore 68s. Wouldn’t say they are the best to work but I sure will miss them! #class68 #conductor #caf #railway #conductor

The growl of a beast #class68

Pictured in Leeds train station last Friday evening, headed for Scarborough. I thought they were coming off this line. Quite like the 68's the raw of that engine - not so keen on the Mk5s though, too many table seats!! #TPExpress #Class68 #Nova3

68024 is providing power for my 1U52 Scarborough to York. Still hard to believe these are getting withdrawn early next month. Set number TP04 too. #sundaywork #class68 #tpe #railway

Two photos I took from the same position at Stalybridge more than 35 years apart (unhelpfully cropped on the previews). 68030 today and 47413 with the 1503 Liverpool-Newcastle on 16 April 1988. SYB is full of unphotogenic clutter now. #class47 #class68

So it seems likely now that 68025 'Superb' and TP02 was my last 68 to drive... Been a fun 4 years 🫡.. Personally I never had major issues with them 🤷🏻‍♂️.. Shame for the passengers... Farewell #nova3 #class68 tpe #class68

Set TP03 providing the power for me tonight. 1U75 Leeds to Scarborough via York then 1U88 back. Going to miss these when they go in December. Shame we couldn’t put these seats in the 802s. #RailwayFamily #class68 #nova3 #tpe #twitterguard

It’s been a bit of a 68 week this week, so here’s another. The sidings at Holgate just outside York, and 68023 ‘Achilles’ soaks up the sun. The main reservoir and brake pipes are free from their mountings, never a good sign! #Class68 #Cat #HolgateSidings #York #DRS #Trainspotting
