RMweb Gold 4630 Posted October 14, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 14, 2014 This failed at Thurston (near Bury St Edmunds) and rather bizarrely was rescued by the RHTT - 57011/57008 with 2 x FEA inside !! - the whole lot went to Felixstowe. http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/H32288/2014/10/13/advanced That would have made an interesting 'one off type' photo. Perhaps we should start a thread of bizarre train rescue formations/workings - with extra points awarded for photographic/video evidence? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steadfast Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 (edited) Rob, it's probably 7C77 Acton - Merehead, making the loco more than likely a 59/2. I think last weeks trains will have gone from RTT by now, if they are still up, passing you at 14.58 should give a passing time at Lavington for 14.50 ish Edit - zooming in I can see its a 59/2, the left hand grill is narrower than a 66 and the red bottles fort he fire extinguishers are visible on the under frame jo Edited October 24, 2014 by ewsjo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
