UK Freight Train Heaven | Drax Power Station Biomass | Railway Photography | UK Railway

The UK Freight Train hotspot, 16 Freight trains photographed on a visit to the Drax Power Station line, the day started photographing a GBRf Class 60 and GBRf Class 66 on the GBRf Biomass trains close to Knottingley, before moving on towards Drax Branch Junction at Heck for DB Class 66 on more Biomass freight trains. A lunchtime trip to the Drax Branch catching more class 60 and Class 66 locomotives on Biomass Trains over the River Aire bridge, this was after catching a class 66 freight train on the lightly used Goole to Snaith line. Enjoy the 16 freights through the day and my accompanying railway photography. I’m proud to be a member of the Phoenix Railway Photographic circle and equally honoured to be awarded ‘Photographer of the year’ in this anniversary year. 2021 represents a significant milestone in the history of the Phoenix Railway-Photographic Circle with the celebration of our 50th anniversary. Phoenix was set up in spring 1971 and was created to promote an alternative approach to railway photography.
