Whilst waiting for a train to Huddersfield, yesterday (11.01.16) a W.C.R.Co 37, with a strange attachment on the leading draw hook, ran L.E. through Stalybridge station, heading East. It turned out to be 0Q38 Preston-Diggle Jn Dn Loop. It the formed 0Q39 back to Preston. Then, as 0Q40 came back again. It's last move appeared to be 0Q41 to Salford Crescent. I'm told the fitting was "test equipment". My query is, does anyone here know more? Last edited: 12/01/2016 at 14:20 by Signalhunter Log in to reply |

That'll have been 37706. The equipment you mention is Fugro RailData's "unique rail infrastructure alignment acquisition system (RILA)" which "provides superior levels of accuracy to measure absolute track position and geometry" More information: http://www.raildata.nl/english/rila.asp Any views and / or opinions expressed by myself are from me personally and do not represent those of any company I either work for or am a consultant for.
