    From here, it passes through the gates on the right and into Dock Gate 4. I used to work at the end of Dock 4 at the Southampton Grain Terminal and we always had to get a move on at knocking-off time as this train crossed the dock road and, if we weren’t quick, we’d have to wait for it to cross.

      Would be nice! There was a point in time where we'd get 67's cropping up on trains for a little bit, can only assume for crew training or familiarisation. Same happened with Class 60's, would crop up for a few weeks and then disappear. Best I ever saw was the 3 Royal 67's on an oil train from Fawley, all working in multiple.

    Interesting! What's the maximum, legal, allowable length of a freight trainset in Great Britain?

    • @SWT442
      @SWT442  6 місяців тому

      I beleive it's now currently around 775m (2,500ft), though that maximum will depend on the route the train is to be run on, as there's no guarantee it'll fit into any loops along the way.
