    How many folk use the 68 ? Why is it to lose the old airport road with all the new houses there ? Maybe that junction with Maybury …bad enough in the old days , god knows what it’s like now What date do all these changes take effect from ?

    The exciting England of a few years ago are a finished busted flush sadly . Root is patently not for this format . Malian is too slow . Bairstiow Buttler and Stokes are near the end of their careers . Nobody frightens the opposition any more .

    Is the Cwm Bargoed coal train the last in the UK?

    Amazingly 66013 worked coal from Tees to Oxwellmains Dunbar today in MEA wagons …thought these had all gone . I understand it was a trial and I can’t ever recall Oxwellmains receiving coal before ?
