RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted December 17, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 17, 2019 On 10/12/2019 at 14:22, The Johnster said: Up to 2 vehicles can be marshalled behind the brake van on a fully fitted train (steam era) with the brakes working. It was done for marshalling purposes to minimise shunting moves when picking up or dropping off traffic, or (particularly on the ECML) at the behest of the guard to steady the ride of the brake van at the higher speeds. The train pictured can run up to 55 60mph assuming the milk tanks are loaded (they were restricted to 45 50mph empty) and could run up to 60mph without them (45mph for short wheelbase vehicles was introduced in the late 60s). ECML fully fitted goods and fish trains were famous for liberally interpretation of those limits, encouraged by the use of pacifics and V2s, and the ride in the van could be a bit, um, lively... Note maximum permitted speeds for milk tanks corrected to the speeds permitted in the 1960s. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the risk of being labelled a revolting pedant (and I am capable of being both those things), maybe the 45xx is unidentified because it's a 5101... 1 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
