As Andrey says, vandals. The locals like to throw stones, bricks etc at trains so it's to protect the crews.

Very nice! An area I would love to return to.

Thank you)

I think I was lucky then, 3 2TE10MK/MK-KN and one TE33.

You should! Did you find traffic to be quite heavy for an unelectrified line?

Yes, I gave him a pretty smile))

One of the highlights of a busy morning in Aktobe.

Thanks!

170532 is leaving Barrow Haven station and heads towards it's final stop of Barton whilst working 2F89 1256 Cleethorpes to Barton-on-Humber. Every two hours a service runs down this quiet line, which once went all the way around to Scunthorpe.
Unfortunately the clouds decided to be awkward (as is often the case in the UK) and left Hull at the far side of the River Humber, and the river itself in sun, and the Lincolnshire side in shadow.
Barrow Haven consists of a few hours, moorings for some small boats and a timber yard which can see a small ship dock from time to time.

A loaded iron ore train bound for Scunthorpe steelworks passes Wrawby Junction singalbox before taking the curve onto the Barnetby - Scunthorpe line.

Thank you all, as for the horse I aren't sure what breed he is but you see quite a lot of horses who look like this guy)

DB Cargo's (UK) 66005 "Maritime Intermodal One" is one of 7 DB 66's in Maritime livery for partnership with Maritime Transport, making a very nice matching rake. Here it works 4R49 0815 Drax Power Station to Immingham Biomass Lp, a rake of empty biomass wagons wagons bound for filling with more woodchip biomass, a greener alternative to coal (apparently). The loaded working with run with a 6XXX headcode meaning it can travel up to 60MPH, whereas the 4 in 4R49 means up to 75MPH, due to brakeforce and train weight. The R is in regards to to region of the train and the two following numbers are unique.

No there is a raised bit of ground that gives you 1-2 meters extra height. I try to stay out of trees as I've fallen out before))

Thank you all :)

Apart from me and a few others who enjoy Continental Europe and the 1520mm lands)) Sadly the UK has a heavy bias of Class 66's

> I wonder what condition it is inside
Apparently the locomotive has received work on it by Loram so I imagine it shouldn't look it's age inside.

Sadly all trains in the UK had to have it as a safety feature. Now it's not required if the train is fitted with LED lights.

This is exactly where the loco was heading, it was parked there last night))

This was a few years ago with DRS 37s and MK2 coaches, sadly these services are operated by Stadler BiMode units.

> can be issued for any train?

This loco has done a lot of work with the saloon coach recently but they will also use it on infrastructure trains. Nothing too extreme given it's age but it's earning its keep.

Passing the footbridge at Priory Park Loram's newly painted 37418 gets underway with 2Z04 Peterborough - York. The driving coach behind is called "Caroline" and is used as a directors saloon for various managers on the railway to get around for special events etc. More can be read here on this interesting coach - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/975025_Caroline
