Is the OH in that area the Headspan type where if one wire is pulled down they all come tumbling down? Peter I identify as half man half biscuit - crumbs! Log in to reply |

The MML OHLE is all of the Mk3 type - headspans for 3+ track sections - as found on the ECML, GWML and other 80s/90s electrification schemes There used to be quite a cool diagram showing a geographical(ish) map of the National Network with the different designs of OHLE highlighted in different colours, but I didn't transfer over the bookmarks from my old PC and now I can't find it :( EDIT Typically, re-googleing it turns up: http://www.rssb.co.uk/sitecollectiondocuments/pdf/reports/research/T346_summary_rpt_final.pdf Page 11 Last edited: 17/01/2014 at 16:27 by JamesN Log in to reply The following user said thank you: TimTamToe |

Confirmed that 60099 dragged the pair of units to Cricklewood - there's a pic of them coupled on Facebook somewhere which came to my attention. Nearly as interesting as the 4 66's (66723, 66722, 66721 & 66729) sent by GBRf from Doncaster to rescue Freightliner's 66533 on 4L85 Doncaster Railport-Felixstowe North yesterday (Friday 17 January 2014) (hauled between Grantham and Peterborough), where the train waited for a FL loco to come all the way from Wilton to take the train forward - 386 late!
