Я только первый раз вижу подпись на знаке MU. Обычно просто два знака, один для грузовых, другой для пассажирских.

Ну, мало ли:)

Да, скорее всего, это путейский сарай./Yes, this is most likely a tool shed for track workers.

Зачем? Чтобы, остановив поезд, машинист мог пописать?/ Why? So that the driver can pee after stopping the train on the route? :)))

По превью подумал, что это Макензиевы Горы в Крыму!/ According to the preview, I thought that this is the Makenzievy Mountains in the Crimea!

I think that it will have been a workman's hut or a place to wait for a train to pass if working on the line.

Интересное сооружение справа от головного вагона.

Andrews, yes it is very impressive, especially as the line was built so long ago, however past this point the speed is 60MPH for this DMU). It will reach 125mph when it is on the East Coast Main Line.

Yes I can imagine it is unusual to see)

I think that is the reason, I know most locomotives were this way round, but GWR locomotives were right hand for some reason, I am not sure why.

Спасибо за пояснения, Дмитрий.

Ограничение скорости 35 mph, для моторвагонного подвижного состава (MU - multiple unit) - 60 mph.

Still so weird to see left-hand traffic. This is also funny to realize that cars have a wheel at left side in right-hand traffic countries and vice versa, however locomotives have reverse situation: a driver is at the left side in left-hand traffic countries. Was it also because of the steam locomotives to see lights?

The cutting between two harsh stone cliffs is very impressive, especially at 200 km/h. By the way, what does "35" and "MU 60" mean?"

They mostly operate commuter trains but it's the equivalent of Moscow's suburban Electric units.

It's National Rail not subway. Trains operate right to the south coast from this station.

Похоже, что - это метро, а не электричка?

Thank you for the nice comments :)

Yes another train is arriving, there are actually 5 tracks on this bridge over the Thames, the other three are out of view of the photo to the left. 20 trains can depart in an hour so it's very busy for a 6 platform station!

I'm seeing white lights in front of the another 465's unit. I think it's arriving.

Noice.

Impressively!

Nice photo
