Hi I may have missed it but when is the first train going over the new lines?
-
Hi I remember my time in the late 50's. Being S & T if the section was track circuited we was the last to finish. We had to manually drill two holes at the end of each rail to bond them. The job was done what ever the weather. If you started wet you finished wet. You was there until the job was complete. How things as changed. As I said at the beginning Werrington was my only job on the main line.

Hi Who is the train company ( LD ) that are running test trains Kings X to Edinburgh only stopping at Newcastle and Morpeth. They are to start a service later in the year. Is this a back door way of getting rid of GNER?

Hi May I say I am sorry I asked the question about Hull Trains. After watching TRACKSIDE ECML of trains on the ECML. I found the video and the answers to my question very interesting. both nothing to do with the Werirngton job. It did seem to attract a lot of comments. To ess1uk & 3 others I am sorry I asked the question.

Hi Can anyone tell me why the front of Hull Trains are not painted yellow? This must be a safety issue.

Hi Good photos again. Question Is it short reason it has just cleared the main line but the new Stamford up line it has not covered it
-
Hi Look at the side of the box. That was very tight. Very little soil needed to in-fill. We are still good at somethings. Well done to all.

Hi
How good it was of Network/Rail to let you all down to parts no seen in closeup by us. The job looked big from the start but that underpass it makes me wonder how it was moved. Well done the planners. It was also nice to see where all the dumpers went up and down to get all the soil out. Great photos and video. For anyone who went down was it bigger than you thought?
