Just a quick update.
I've been in touch with a few people at the railway, asking them if it's possible to organise some access to the crane for Ian and i'm waiting to hear back :)

Thanks to David for his assistance.

I know plenty of people at the KESR, especially those on the ground, all top people. If you private message me your email address, i'll ask one of them to contact you. :)

There is alot of rain forecast for the next few days, i wonder if they will try a sort of damage limitation exercise and then go for the big stuff after the ground has dried?

Nice to see the all orange policy in place :)

I suppose it's a tandem lift to get those things up right? I can see something interesting in that photo but it's difficult to say without checking in person

Cheers

I think that in the eyes of NR once the current Breakdown Trains are worn out, that's it. They'd rather do what they can with jacks and hire road cranes for the rest.

Blast from the past. I worked on that unit when it was at Meldon {Dartrmoor Railway}. The background music is the same track used in Network Rail briefing DVD's aswell :shock:

Bescott crane and coaches. Presumably to assist in the removal of wagons first.
