  A spatially homogeneous Bianchi type VI0 model containing a viscous fluid in
the presence of an axial magnetic field has been studied. A barotropic equation
of state together with a pair of linear relations among the square root of
matter density, shear scalar, and expansion scalar have been assumed. Solutions
are obtained in the presence of a magnetic field, only in two special cases,
which are comparatively simpler. The complete solutions for this model in the
absence of a magnetic field are also obtained. The presence of a magnetic field
in the former case however, does not in effect cause any major modification in
the fundamental nature of the initial singularity of the expanding model.
