The North-West 3J11 had 6 locos within the first week..... 2x66, 2x68 and 2x66 And it's been the same pair since with 66421/66126. Still haven't managed to get a daytime shot of these last two Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RusselBridge2017 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Caught the Gloucester-Hereford-Oxford-Kings Norton-Newport RHTT finally today. I think maybe looking at the condition of the Colas 56 it may have been swapped out at Kings Norton an hour earlier??? 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold TravisM Posted October 29, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted October 29, 2020 I’ve got a Bachmann Windhoff MPV and I was wondering if they have been used in the East Anglian and Lincolnshire areas recently? I’ve only seen one in the Peterborough and Spalding area in the last few years and looking on Flickr, I’m beginning to think that their operating area is basically 3rd rail systems.

I’ve only seen one in the Peterborough and Spalding area in the last few years and looking on Flickr, I’m beginning to think that their operating area is basically 3rd rail systems. They also work the circuits around the north west from Wigan LIP, which takes one into West Yorkshire for a couple of reversals.

warringtonbankquay Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Can anybody shed light on why Freightliner are currently converting 8 FRA flats for RHTT work. Are these to supplement the Network Rail FEAs? It's reported in Rail Express (Nov 2020) and there are photos on Carl Watson's site. The converted wagons are finished in G&W Freightliner grey with the orange logos. Thanks for any information. Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold 4630 Posted November 4, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 4, 2020 As it was a nice sunny day in this part of West Yorkshire on 4th November 2020 and this was likely be the last opportunity that I can get out for a bit, it was too good an opportunity to miss. So working 3S14 around West Yorkshire, here is the pairing of 37419 'Carl Haviland 1954-2012' and 37423 'Spirit of the Lakes', in RHTT livery. First at Ravensthorpe about to join the three track section passing on through Mirfield... ... and then after reversal at Huddersfield, heading back east at Heaton Lodge. I'll tip my hat to Accurascale if they can replicate the weathered RHTT look on any of their forthcoming release of class 37/4s. 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastwestdivide Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 A carefully-timed trip to the supermarket at Rotherham Parkgate led to this - 37402 and 37407 heading towards Sheffield earlier today, adding a bit more moisture to a foggy morning: Mobile phone shot, so I think the shutter speed was a bit low. Still, I've taken worse. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
