      Many thanks, Syd. I'm glad you enjoyed it, mate. They are definitely shifting that coal well down to you, buddy. It's supposed to shut down September. Apparently , now common sense would say to hang on as you say, get some cat litter in it. As I'm sure Drax will be fine using Coal as well to make up for it going........ keep safe mate

    What a sound from the colas 37 awesome is the line speed through Mexborough quite low ?

    • @S2RUF
      @S2RUF 2 місяці тому

      Technically the line speed through the station is 60mph, but round the right hand curve towards Swinton, just out of sight behind the trees, it’s 40mph in both directions due to the left hand sweeping curve that you take to get to Swinton. So you’ve got trains slowing down to hit the 40, or just starting to accelerate after leaving the 40 zone. You can see on the end of the Doncaster bound platform the line speed increases to 75.

      Watching having my Breakfast Pete. A great souvenir of a really great day we all had, assuming you didn’t get to Sheffield then Pete ? Look after yourself and make sure, the plumber doesn’t leave a mess.

      There was a signalling issue just before it came, and the Cross Country Voyager was literally in front

    Whats the equipment on the front of the Colas 37?

    • @donnypete
      @donnypete  2 місяці тому +3

      All I know is that it's laser test equipment . No doubt there will be a technical name.
