TRANSRAIL FREIGHT WEST MIDLANDS AREA Local Freights, Trip Workings & Shunt Engines The following is a list of Transrail local workings from Bescot and Rugby Depots in the UK West Midlands. The information should be correct to 23rd July 1995 and comes from sources at Transrail. Workings are presented by loco programme (diagram), headed by the diagram number, loco class and operating pool. If people are interested I can post info on long distance Transrail services through the West Midlands and I can probably also get info on other companies (RFD, Loadhaul & Mainline trains in this area - let me know?
