Wheel Flats on the S&C causes diversion of Engineer's Train and Logs down the WCML
14 Aug 24
Apologies for the lack of sound on the Logs / Class 56 clip. The microphone jack must have become loose although I never realised at the time.
We start with the empty Cement train to Clitheroe
We have the third return working from Dalston of the Oil train to Grangemeouth.
Unbeknown to us immediately, the empty Gypsum train from Kirkby Thore to Tees Port was stopped between Appleby and Kirkby Stephen. Wheel flats had been detected by the signaller at Appleby. Unknown DB Cargo 66 at the helm. After checks were made and a defective wagons dropped off at Kirkby Stephen , the train proceeded 3 hours late. As a result 6K05 Engineer's train to Basford Hall and the Logs, 6J37, to Chirk were routed down the WCML. The demic wagon was noted in Kirkby Stephen Up siding on 22nd August
We see a few trains at London Road Tunnel (London Rd Junction and Petteril Bridge Junction) including LSL 47s on a charter. We see the charter at Upperby Junction at the end of the crew break and heading south.
