25th November 2016 Christmas came early on 25th November 2016 when Colas sent its 'Turkey' Class 70 No.70801 to Exeter on the Riverside stone. The return empties were captured returning to Westbury with No.70801 at the helm while working 6C28 12:53 Exeter Riverside to Whatley Quarry. No.70801 was the only Colas Class 70 to be built in Turkey arriving in the UK at Newport Docks wearing a base green livery and Turkish Flags on the cabside, whilst the rest of the fleet were built in Erie in North America., Meanwhile DB Cargo will be hoping Father Christmas brings them some new drivers for Christmas so they might be able to operate their own stone contract in the South West (Photo: Nathan Williamson)
