30th April 2016

Track work between Axe Gates and Axminster East JUnction meant that the line had to close for the weekend. Colas Rail were hired in to operate the various engineering trains required. Here 66847 backs up its train over the level crossing, after dropping some ballast at 16.00. The train arrived in the morning as 00.53 Eastleigh East Yard - Chard Junction. See other images in the Chard Junction section.
