    Feel free to move this, I wasn't quite sure where to put this one....

    After scrolling through RTT for trains that I could go and get a photo of I found these two and just wondered what would operate them and why.

    http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/U76205/2015/08/28/advanced - someone has mentioned to me that it's likely to be a track machine of some kind

    http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/U76203/2015/08/28/advanced - I'm not too sure if this is a tamper of some sort, my tutor regularly sees tampers in the Chevington Loop.

    Any information will be appreciated,
    Tommy :)

    OTM are much more interesting than boring passenger/good trains ;)

    DR75301 is a Volker Rail Matisa B45UE Tamper while DR80217 is an Network Rail ( built by Harsco Track Technoligies) Stone Blower
