Class 37 train at Cardiff Central 05/02/20

[voyagerdude220]

Hi all,

Please could someone possibly tell me what I spotted at Cardiff Central last Wednesday 05/02/20?

I was there at approximately 17:00 and from a distance noticed a Class 37 (possibly Colas liveried?) and roughly 4 or 5 carriages, but I've no idea what the working was. It did have people onboard.

It was heading away from Swansea, towards Newport- although I suspect it was on a local service, so probably didn't go to Newport.

Thanks.

There are 2 per day (Mondays to Fridays) down from Rhymney to Cariff and back up during the peaks. They have been operating since May last year. There is a dedicated thread for some bedtime reading
