I always thought that they had a fair few empty trucks acting as a buffer on either side of the flask?
-
Two loco's! - How heavy's that thing?
-
@TheDocGoblin What line are they being used on? I've never seen them on passenger duties before in ea would love to find out more
-
would rather it go by road!? hell no!!
-
@LukeCA18 ok thanks :)
-
@joetorsneyTrains 66s are being increasingly used and I guess all the 70s belong to freightliner. DRS have loads of locos though and their not much wrong with any of the older classes they operate
-
@LukeCA18 well what I meant is why dont they have 66s or 70s pulling nuclear flasks?
-
@joetorsneyTrains My bad, it's a handful of the 47's that are loaned to Norwich station.
-
@LukeCA18 is that why you always see 37s and 20s pulling nuclear flasks?
-
@TheDocGoblin I think it's because national express east anglia borrow the DRS 37s for thunderbird duties
Its simply in case one loco breaks down. they don't want nuclear material sitting around while they wait for a relief loco
