Hi all, was wondering if anyone can help, what has happened to the Baglan Bay/Exeter Riverside log workings that used to go through hereford (usually on Tuesdays and Thursdays)? I haven't seen them on RTT at for quite a while, have they finished or routed via the Lickey? Also on saterday so the Exeter to Bescot clay workings have not been up this way again for quite a while thanks in advance for any info :)

From what I know the Chirk/Exeter contract ended and recently no logs have been spotted at Riverside

As per the previous post, the Exeter traffic has ceased, but the Baglan Bay train still runs.

I haven't seen them on RTT at for quite a while,
Not sure what your definition of "quite a while" is, but the Baglan Bay
train ran as recently as last Thursday:

returning on Friday:

Also on saturday so the Exeter to Bescot clay workings have not been up this way again for quite a while
That train now runs on a Friday (via Bromsgrove).

Thanks all for the reply's, much appreciated, was looking quite busy at couple of years ago but with he loss of the coal traffic and the steel traffic not as regular as it used to be (though last week the Margam Round Oak range this way) it's starting to look a lot less busy shame really
