March 2015


Picture
Its Friday, so its NMT day in the West Country, now running every other week, the NMT operated its 1Q18, 05.07 Old Oak Common to Old Oak Common via Paddington and Plymouth run on 27 March 2015. In dull conditions the set led by No. 43013 and tailed by No. 43062 passes below the station footbridge at Dawlish. By the time the train reached Dawlish in the outward direction it was running 89mins late.

Pity the sun could not find a way to illuminate this today. Colas Rail Freight Class 70 No. 70804 approaches the new footbridge at Powderham on 24 March 2015 powering train 6V54, the 05.35 Chirk Kronospan to Teigngrace empty logs. First time a 70 had operated the duty. The train today was powered by Freightliner Class 66 No. 66555 from Chirk to Exeter from where the 70 took over, arriving light from Westbury.

Picture
First Great Western's popular daytime sleeper service from Penzance depot to Old Oak Common operated on 23 March 2015 powered by FGW-green liveried No. 57604 piloting failed DRS No. 57306. Running as train 5Z70, the 10.25 Penzance Long Rock depot to Old Oak Common depot, the train is seen passing through Dawlish station. Last evenings up Penzance to Paddington sleeper was a failure with brake defects at Penzance and was formed of an HST set, with No. 57604 hitching a ride west on the down sleeper to rescue the train and take it to London for this evenings westbound service. How many times in recent months has this train failed?

Picture
Only 317 minutes early, Colas Class 70 No. 70804 passes Powderham with train 6C30, the 15.25 Newton Abbot to Westbury after dropping ballast along the Newton Abbot to Heathfield branch. Pity the sun was not out!

Picture
These Colas men like to turn up early! 6C30 05.20 Westbury Down TC to Newton Abbot for the Heathfield branch loaded ballast train passes Dawlish at 06.49 some 32min early on 23 March 2015. The train is powered by Class 70 No. 70804, and providing all goes to plan it will be the first 70 over the Heathfield branch.

Picture
Every day the sun improves for this view. Freightliner No. 66520 emerges slowly from Kennaway Tunnel, Dawlish on 21 March 2015 powering train 6Y54, the 19.25 Exeter St Thomas to Westbury, running between the worksite at Dainton to Exeter.

Thunderbirds are GO. DRS 57306 runs light from Old Oak to Laira to rescue the failed sleepers on 17 March 2015. Last nights Paddington to Pnzance sleeper failed at Plymouth this morning with a GSM-R fault on 57602. The loco could not be repaired at Laira, they did try and an attempt was made to work the train to Penzance but again it failed. So a rescue loco was sent from Old Oak to power tonights up sleeper which is likely to start from Plymouth not Penzance.

Picture
Wonder how much longer this thing (43163) has to carry its Plymouth branding before it is removed? Seen passing Dawlish on 6 March 2015 leading the 1C84, 14.06 Paddington to Penzance. Cant get over the decent light for a change.

Picture
Former London Midland-liveried FGW-operated Class 153 'Bubble' No. 153325 now sports a rather stunning 'Citizens Rail' red and blue livery, applied as a partnership between Citizens Rail, FGW and the Devon & Cornwall Rail Partnership.

Picture
Taken on 1 March 2015 this view shows that the majority of new concrete sections raising the height of the lower walkway are now in position and the process of joining this to the two existing sections is now underway. The 'trench' section formed by the new sections will now be filled with liquid cement pumped down from the Exeter Road prior to the top being fitted. Looks like the building team are working to a date of 1 May for some form of completion. A little different from one year ago! 153369 heads west past the worksite forming train 2C47 12.20 Exeter St Davids - Penzance.
