Hi HSTFAN13, Interestingly, Realtimetrains http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/R73361/2013/09/16/advanced still call Sellafield, Sellafield B.N.F, (also the link is for the derailed train - This service was cancelled between Salthouse Jn and Sellafield B.N.F. due to problem with the infrastructure!!!!!), as do Network Rail in their working timetable. So I was thinking assuming that kevpeo may well have meant the same, but of course, only he can comment on this.... Kind regards Ian

Do we think they went for fuel!!! Just out of interest, do we know which two locos they were? Ian

And from the pages of DRS http://www.directrailservices.com/Portals/0/DRS%20Brief%20No%203%20%20%20%20Last%20Updated%2017.9.13%2010.30am.pdf

Fair point Kev, Option 3... Ulverston, has a cross over point, an 24hr box and a siding to store a few units, and only 20 mins by road to Barrow!

Hi Kev, Just seen this on the local news... Option 2, Trains run Barrow - Park South - Dalton Jc - Dalton, all that would happen is Roose gets missed out and takes a few mins longer http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cumbria-24114294 Are there still road works at Greenodd? Bet makes the trip from Grange fun!!! Ian

I was thinking a Regional Railways class 28 Ian

There was a small wagon works at Carnforth station (in the triangle just West of the station between the Leeds line, Barrow line and the former siding that had the Leeds/Barrow line that avoided the station). It was a single road shed with two short lines next to it. I am not sure when it closed, but if memory serves me correctly it was around ten years back. It always had an 08 there and some rusty P Way wagons........ I can't seems to copy a link to, or a photo from Google earth. But if you type "Carnforth station, Warton Road" in, and look at the area between Warton Road and Shore Road. It now look like a trading estate, but the track work is still in place. Hope this may be of some use Ian

I see as I passed Hest Bank yesterday that the house by the level crossing (under the foot bridge, same side as the signal box), is now a pile of bricks!!! Something else gone of ever....... Ian

Thanks Bob, I was under the impression that 24's had disks not headcode boxes. Kind regards Ian

Hi all, Nice photos. One question What is with the headcode box? Kind regards a slightly confused Ian

Whilst waiting for this today at Carnforth I do believe Jim sneaked up behind be...... Not the best photo in the world...... but Ian

What days you passing through Carnforth next week? Or is it just Sunday? I may head down and take a few photos? Ian

Nice photos Mark. Jim, any chance you might get a go with the class 86? Kind regards Ian

Hi Jim, Was it you turn on 6J37 today........ From www.prestonstation.org.uk web site ..... Colas 56094 has disgraced itself just past Oxheys Loop, to the north of Preston, whilst hauling the 6J37 Carlisle - Chirk logs. 57304 has been dispatched from Preston to drag it into the station, whilst 4M44 has been put into the loop at Oxheys to allow passenger traffic to pass. Rescue loco and failed train proceeding very slowly back to Preston, as at 15.00. Kind regards Ian

Not sure about the "not to be moved" sign Kingmoor open day Ian

DRS Kingmoor open day, just can't remember the year!!!!

Hi Kev, I have managed to make contact, he's now off searching his collection to see what he can find! Fingers crossed. Kind regards Ian

Hi, Slightly off topic (sorry), I assume that this happened to Bare Lane box at the same time? Ian

Hi Kev, I have tried to PM you a photo...... Not sure if I have managed to do it correctly? Hope it helps Ian

Hi Kev, I know a man at work that may have a good photo of it (or he may know someone else that has), I will try and find him tomorrow, but I can go for a few weeks without seeing him, and I'm off next week to add to it!!!! But I will do my best Kind regards Ian
