Had a couple of trains pass where I live today, and could hear work in progress a little further down the line, to the south, so I took a few snaps.
First photo was taken at 08.48, and the first train was headed by #66418. The wagons the ballast was carried in were a mix of Network Rail and Wascosa. The second train was headed by #66563, with the third and fourth photos being taken from both sides of the bridge that carries Ashton Road over the line. Fifth and seventh photos are #66593, at the rear of the second train, and the sixth is #66563 again, as near as I could get to it by the line.
Edit - In the evening a ballast tamper was idling next to where I live.
