Some Midland Main Line action from the early 2000s. Really cannot remember the date. Location is also unclear, but most likely between Leicester and Market Harborough.

Unidentified example. I suspect these were taken in the morning, so guess this is a London-bound train.

A delay on the train from Doncaster to Sheffield also gave me the opportunity to have a quick look around Sheffield Station, as I waited for another train home.

The network rail new measurement HST on its way to paignton. Will upload video once processed I took as well. It’s in slo motion to give good feel for train. Interestingly the pantograph test car seems to be minus pantograph currently

I believe the NMT has been pantograph-less for a while now and is intended to stay as such. Anyone confirm?

Yes thats right, it’s too far back in the formation to give accurate readings so it wasΒ removed

Β 

there is/was talk of one of the powercars having a pantograph fitted over the old guards area with recording equipment below but nothing has come of that as yet
