Guest Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) Nice variation , but really on a low loader!! says it all about the railway of today Indeed. Maybe we should adopt the American term "railroad". I appreciate that a lot of freight travels by road, but even the traction seems to be having a fag break in a motorway services now. Is nothing rail connected these days? Edited May 7, 2016 by Pete 75C 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Boar Fell Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) Unfortunately I don't think its possible to go by rail all the way into the NEC Edit: Well, certainly the catenary is missing... https://twitter.com/DBCargoUK/status/728631362018775040 Edited May 7, 2016 by Wild Boar Fell 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold russ p Posted May 7, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 7, 2016 As nice as it is to see a 90 being looked after it must be a bit embarrassing for DB that the only loco they have to display there is a nearly 30year old BR design 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

royaloak Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Nice variation , but really on a low loader!! says it all about the railway of today Robert Yep, do you think it might be something to do with the fact there are no rails (or overhead wires) into the NEC which is where the loco is going?

PenrithBeacon Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) I think this was the loco that went past Northwick Park on the up slow on Wednesday afternoon. It was pulling a dead EWS 66 from Crewe TMD. EDIT having taken a look at the video, it wasn't this engine Edited May 7, 2016 by PenrithBeacon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ColinK Posted May 7, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 7, 2016 Its all in the name 'DB Cargo'. The loco clearly displays 'DB' logos, but not the word cargo. So what 'DB Cargo' means is 'DB' is 'cargo' for the road haulage people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Ron Ron Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 With DB Schenker now known as DB Cargo, ...... With an even bigger pedants hat on....... DB Schenker is still called DB Schenker. It's the rail freight division, DB Schenker Rail that is now called DB Cargo (in the UK division's case, DB Schenker Rail UK is now DB Cargo UK). This follows the splitting of the rail freight business, from the much bigger Schenker logistics operation, which is being lined up for a possible sell off. .

RMweb Gold Robert Shrives Posted May 8, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 8, 2016 Hi , Yep no rails in NEC except when playing to the crowd - taken several engines in and enjoyed watching the Standard gauge boys unloading in hall 5 for the Warley national model railway show. The cost is in the loading/unloading mileage costs lower and certainly less hassle than dealing with VSTP pathing and Network Rail for works moves !

RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted May 9, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 9, 2016 Just out of interest when a loco goes off track (in this example into the exhibition hall at the NEC!) what does the loco's location status on TOPS or whatever they call it this week show?
