It's all under tarmac now, the new road surface has been laid.

I must ride out that way this week. Decent weather this week after all the high winds and rain of the weekend.

Some photos from around the entrance at Hurn Road taken by Trackside ECML this afternoon.

The corner on the road being reconstructed.

Hurn Road looking north towards Glinton, the A15 dual carraigeway is behind the trees on the right.

 

Looking down Hurn Road towards the ECML.

 

Looking from the opposite direction, the ECML behind the photographer.

 

 

All that is missing is a signpost to say where the next destination is.

 

Behind the hedge to the left in the previous photo.  A lot of topsoil still heaped up.............

 

......and still a lot of rubbish to clear up.

 

 

Thanks for these Mick and Trackside ECML. I must make the most of the sunny weather and get out on my bike around Hurn Road and the Cock Lane bridge areas. Cheers all!

A view of an Azuma, from the city centre Nene Valley Railway car park, waiting at a red on the March line. For the second weekend in a row there are works trains on the ECML and diversions.  Also power lines down south of Peterborough I just heard:

Trains on the ECML, mostly around Werrington Junction. Use of the dive-under captured.  January 4th, 10th, 12th and 13th 2022. A YouTube film by Trackside ECML:

6E30 Whitemoor to Doncaster currently traversing the diveunder.

 

Thanks for the news. I am staying home with my hot soup etc...    I hope to be out on the bike next week, weather permitting.

The orange army were on it today and trains normally on UF were using P1 or P2

 

BTW On RTT, 4E59 was showing as going via Werrington Jn, rather than use dive under, however it went through platform 7 which does not have access to the Down Main and did not record a time for Werrington Jn. so must have used the dive under.

Does anyone know why the dive-under is not being used by freight for all journeys up and down the joint line?

Off topic. According to a thread on RailUK forums there were track circuit problems on the Up fast this morning:

4E28 (0005), 4E13 (0232), 4E11 (0442), 4E14 (0711) & 4E53 (1005) Seem to be the only services northbound today (Real Time Trains)

The rest are 'Runs as required' and didn't, or just cancelled today.

Can't find any southbound at all.

One of these days I will catch something using the dive-under...

No trains seen using the dive-under from 15:00 to 16:20.

I caught this on the Stamford line:

The large scissors between the March's and Stamfords. I'll be the big bloke in orange looking fed up.

Is that just north of Peterborough station?

"From after the last train on Christmas Eve until before the first service on Monday 27 December, engineers will be working to renew sections of track and the points on a nearby railway junction just north of the station."

That seems to be about 23:00 on the 24th until 04:00 or so on the 27th judging by train times from RTT.

Does anyone know where and what they will be working on?

Wednesday 22nd December

Views from Hurn Road. Looks like a hedge is being planted. I suppose there'll be some kind of ditch or fence constructed between the field and Hurn Road... 

Looks like a TARDIS and a grit tub:

From Legolash on RailUKforums (railforums.co.uk):

I managed to receive a signalling diagram for the the diveunder which allowed me to map the gradient data.

I had to manually draw the tracks but I will receive an NR version early next year to draw more accurate locations.
