Plenty of photos from a trip down to Newport and Cardiff to photograph and travel on some of the Newport - Cardiff rugby specials. There were 2 sets working the shuttles, one using top and tail 47's(47805 & 47847) and the other using top and tail 50's(50031 & 50049). Also seen during the day were some other rugby specials hauled by 67's and various freight trains hauled by 60's and 66's. One final photo in the collection is from the next day when I saw a 66 haul a steel train through Wylde Green on the X-City line in Birmingham.
