Absolutely, was witnessed last night too.

I think so, although I believe this was a signaling power supply failure. https://www.thecomet.net/news/24641512.caused-stevenage-railway-tracks-set-fire/

I live near to this incident and as my photos are doing the rounds through various groups I'll stick them here. These photos was taken from a road bridge and the Health Club next to the fire. Fire was contained in the 25kv conduit that feeds certain locations along the route. Once the fire was...

This would have been myself shunting it into the shed for maintenance/repairs.

Max speed for this skate run was 20mph, 5mph over points and crossings with checks made at: Stevenage, Hertford North and Gordon Hill. So as you can imagine, a slow run. :lol:

Scumbag. Should be sacked.

This unit is now making its way back to us at XGD [Bounds Green] as 5Q54. Currently 17L passing Bayford. (26/06/2021 03:43) 1624675644 I was there this day and provided some help to the services involved. Working at Bounds Green we were given some basic training on the units as Hull Trains...

This is correct, on the 80x fleet it indicates where the door control key is inserted. 1622411443 Not if its flashing. These lights can also remain on during a fault as seen by another video I managed to capture a few years ago. The door could be mechanically locked shut but a electrical...

1Z99 is 67012 and is assisting with the recovery of the unit with use of an emergency coupler. Dispatched from Bounds Green earlier this evening.

I've had to make 2. Depending on the situation, your constancy flipping from textbook procedures to coming off script because the nature of the incident has changed and you have to remind yourself what you are doing. My Call was an attempted/in progress suicide. It's certainly not a call you'd...

Hi, 801 units, both 9 and 5 car have 1 GU on the 822 car. I shunt regularly using these engines and today a 9 car 801/2 ran from KGX to Potters Bar I believe on the GU. Seen passing Bounds Green:

Good Morning, I thought I'd share a video of a 20 coach 700 train, formed with 700149 and failed 700034 passing Watton at Stone.

A pair of Northern 321s passed me at Bounds Green last night, Crewe to Clacton I believe... Class 37 hauled.

If we were busy at the depot, we used to just leave it at Bowes Park Rev. It was the same driver and most days the signaller did not mind.

From memory, in as 5Y08, out as 5S16. It when went out as 3W96 during the head code changes towards the end of HSTs time on the ECML...

I meant last year

As Class 80x trains were introduced, we had a HST set that come to BN around 11am, and left at 19:07 to make an evening Leeds service. Also when HSTs were around, ever since I started (3 years ago) on a Saturday into Sunday, we had one that come in for overnight servicing every week.

Ahh wonderful, Thanks for this.

43313 finally departed BN on 05/03/2020 around 20:15 - Destination unknown as I was only just booking on for work when this was at the gate.

It is a shame we no longer see this working, was nice to have a change of scenery at BN. :'(
