37510 at Barnetby on snowplough duties - 5th December 2010

Barnetby station, North Lincolnshire.
Sunday 5th December 2010.
Locomotive featured: DRS Class 37 No. 37510.

After Lincolnshire's heaviest snowfall for well over 20 years, the railways in this area have been limping on for freight, but no passenger services have yet operated. In this video, we see 37510 pass Barnetby on 0X02 Doncaster to Doncaster via Immingham, returning from Immingham.

3:12 was a SPAD

@LeamingtonSteve No it wasn't. The signal was frozen up, so could not be cleared. The loco had to pass it at danger, but not without permission from the Signaller. There's a world of difference between passing signals at danger with permission & SPAD's.

VERY NICE PICTURES IN THE SNOW

Really surprised that Barnetby is still a semaphore oasis, as it's now trapped between Lincoln and Grimsby which are both MAS. Great video considering the weather.

That sight could so easily be 50 years ago, apart from the loco livery/modifications...

Snow plough? lol

[EWS60500]

cool stuff, I supose freight still runs as its heavier and it buldozes the snow, LOL, great catch thoe of that 37 on ploughing duties

[JIMSIG15]

will be at least 30 yrs plus before the semaphores go. NR's got no money for major re-newals
