SRman Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 (edited) It zigged when it should have zagged! An interesting photo of something different, with lots of nice, incidental detail (like the signals) for modellers to study.

Colin parks Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 It zigged when it should have zagged! An interesting photo of something different, with lots of nice, incidental detail (like the signals) for modellers to study. There certainly is plenty of detail to inspire modellers of the third rail. Now, has anyone modelled a derailment I wonder?! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trev52A Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I've been away from this site for a while, so I've missed out on this thread, but do these count? Two LNER-built 3rd-rail North Tyneside electrics at Newcastle on 6th May 1967, shortly before the line to the coast was turned over completely to DMUs. Also on the left a 2-coach DMU is awaiting departure for Alnwick (!) if the headboard is correct. (The Tyne & Wear metro trains now link Newcastle to the coast using much of the ex-BR route and stations and this part of Central Station is now a car park!)
