Anyone here work at Gilberdyke SB? (Updates on resignalling in the area)

[Hull D]

Hi guys.

Do we have anyone on here that is currently working at Brough East, Saltmarshe, or Crabley Creek SB's?

I don't work there but I have contacts that do and know a fair bit about the boxes in question.

Thanks for the reply. I was after an update re the re-signalling in that area. The most recent info I can find is quite old, but states upgrades in 2016. As we're nearly in 2017, I wondered if anyone knew anything more specific?

Rumour was that at one stage that it was going to be Christmas / New Year 2016 / 2017 like Grimsby, Cleethorpes & Immingham areas, was carried out.

Did see somewhere that because of Hull, Year of Culture 2017 that it was been put back so as not to mess up the travel plans of all them visiting Hull.

Think it nicely falls into line with Network Rail able to use the money allocated for the work on other projects like the overrunning electrification schemes and reschedule the work for late 2017/2018 if the money is still there and also they was going to use technology never used before I believe I read somewhere either on here or on another site.

There was a lot of lineside troughing work carried out already in previous years thats if anyone can remember where it is when they want to use it as it will have disappered into the lineside undergrowth and rubbish.

They aint gonna put themselves forward and admit to being signallers on here... Too many train mangers on here baying for blood for the delays they cause

Especially where longlands junction and 1PXX headcodes are mentioned.....

Since the Electrification of the line from Selby to Hull is been put on a slow light , one day it might get electrified but don,t hold you breath but has anyone said anything if the re-signalling has also been put back too?

So any news anyone about the re-signalling then if its to go ahead or is it cancelled too.
