Hi was wondering what kind of damage to the rails and the delays that can be expected due to the major freight train fire which set multiple diesel containers and cars alight (smoke still coming up this morning )
5 wagons derailed and on-fire/burnt out, further 4 derailed is the latest update.
Just seen some photos from the scene - there's a loss of signalling with 66004 now standing just beyond an unlit signal PT381, derailment appears to have occurred across Morlais Junction, which will slightly complicate both recovery and repair of damage, but with signalling to fix etc, it'll be closed for a few days.
