Another early start to record the last of the present diversions of 6B13 MURCO Tank train from Robeston to Westerleigh via the Loughor Bridge and the notorious Cockett Bank.
In the first clip we see 60063 bring it's heavy load with assistance of 66230 at the rear, slowly climb to the summit of the 1:50 Cockett Bank.
In the second clip we see the train unusually arriving into the inside roads at Margam Knuckle Yard to detach the 66.
Finally we see 60063 tackle Stormy Bank East of Margam unassisted as it continues its journey to the MURCO terminal at Westerleigh
Next week the train will use its normal route along the Swansea District Line
