thanks - a lot of effort for 3 carriages!

You're right there, there's a quote on RailAdventure facebook though that explains the effort "our customer was grateful for the help being organised last minute to move the much needed coaching stock, after a planned locomotive owned by a third party from elsewhere failed"

Reportedly 37403 was the planned loco

Hi,
Does RailAdventure UK still own or use Meridian Barrier Vehicles? I recall reading somewhere that they bought 2. However I have not seen any recent posts from RailAdventure UK on LinkedIn, Facebook or Instagram with them in use.

Could anyone here shed some lights? Thanks a Million.

Those four barriers are going to Eastleigh Arlington today behind 37407. Unsure of the reason though

No, it's full of RHTT bits and pieces at this time of year.

It's reportedly got 43468 & 43480 on it so I would (dangerously) assume that it has the four ROMIC coaches
