A meeting of diverted Colas powered trains at Standish Junction on 30 July 2024. 66846 heads north with the 6M40 11:42 Westbury to Stud Farm ballast empties, just as 37116 heads in the opposite direction with the 3Z01 11:11 Derby RTC to Canton Taff Vale Sidings Network Rail test train. In theory these trains should have passed at Cheltenham, but the 37 was running 10 minutes early, and the 66 38 minutes late. The 37 was diverted because the Chepstow line was closed, and the 66 was rerouted because the Banbury line was shut. |
