Nuclear traffic is very quiet at the moment - no Sizewell at present and
I understand that the Dungeness train was cancelled today due to work
taking place at Lydd in connection with an upcoming new stone contract.

Ah right, well i'll just keep checking realtime trains every now and again to see if it starts running again.

Many thanks again Mark, you have been very helpful again. May I ask how you get all the information?

It's my full time job to know which day(s) every freight train in the country runs
so I can keep the Freightmaster Online timetables up to date and accurate.

To do this, I study RTT, loco TOPS lists, FOC trainplans and sightings reports
and use the resultant data to get the 'big picture' of what runs when...

Basically, I do the time-consuming, tedious research so my subscribers don't have to!!:D

There were 2 47's or 57's on it as well, not sure which ones as when I went to take my pic an early running freightliner passed in the opposite direction and was in the way. gutted lol

Thanks again for letting me know Mark ;)

20303 and 20208 (did you need that one Will. C?) off to Dungeness today, currently running about 1 1/2 hours late so hope that won't impact on 6K51 tonight.

57308 and 47828 were the other locos.

First time I have seen a 57/3 working the flasks.

Yes, it was late in the morning as well, went through Tring just after 07:00. I should have hung around and got a picture but going home for some sleep was a bit more of a priority (been on nights).

Sizewell must be busy, twice in one week :shock:

20303 / 308 off down there today so look out for 6K51 tonight if you get chance!

Rite, Im going to have to make sure I've either finished work or can make a little detour on my deliveries tonight.

Thanks for the heads up :)
