Haven't seen the afternoon Dagenham Dock - Calvert binliner for a while ; has it been put on hold for the foreseeable future ? Also noticed yesterday that the late morning Bow - Calvert spoil train ran at 6am through HWY as opposed to its usual late morning slot. Was there any particular reason for this ?
I think it was headed by a Class 67 as opposed to a 66 ?

It ceased operation for good last July - the containers were cut up
shortly after and sold for scrap!

The Bristol to Calvert 'Avon binliner' train ceased on April 1st this year,
leaving just th Cricklewood (FHH) and Northolt (DBS) to Calvert trains.
