Laying a new track at Reedham station
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Laying a new track at Reedham station Waggons carrying sand and crushed stone ballast arrive at the station. The new section of track can be seen at right: rails and concrete sleepers are resting on a new bed of crushed stone ballast. Some of the workers are busy fitting the last fishplates to join the sections of rails, and everybody is waiting for more sand and stones to arrive.
The line between Reedham and Cantley is closed over the weekend whilst a new track is being laid > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1753536. The old rails and sleepers have been removed > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1751738. They were replaced over night by a new track. Diesel locomotives such as the low emission Class 66725 'Sunderland' > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1753545 have brought the required materials such as rails, sleepers, sand and crushed stone ballast to the section being presently worked on. The trains have also brought a crane, a digger that can move on rails > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1754244 and a JCB. The men will be working day and night so as not to disrupt rail traffic for any longer than necessary and the portable lights positioned along the lineside will illuminate the track at night. |
