Hello from Peterborough

Hello all,
I live on the northern edge of Peterborough in a district called Werrington. I am particularly interested in the progress of the Werrington Junction dive under or grade separation on the East Coast Main Line.

Cheers

Many thanks for the welcome. Is there a thread on the forum about the Werrington Junction dive under or a rail infrastructure section?

Hi Crun & welcome. I suspect you may know more about this than we do (though I stand to be corrected ).

AFAICR we haven't started a thread on this...I'd heard of it vaguely through the grapevine, but had to Google it to find out.

Link here with video simulation .... Werrington Dive under

Feel free to create one...

Interesting.

Strange depiction of the freight loco in the video, looks a bit like a 37.

I thought it looked more like a yellow liveried Deltic prototype? Still odd!

was not a yellow Deltic used for gauging lines? Seem to remember a photo somewhere of a yellow train with what looked li spikes on it. Cannot remember if they were on the loco or anywhere else hence using the word train as a description of what I think I saw.

I doubt that it's meant to represent any train in particular. I suspect that the software which NR use for route simulation is European, and they're stuck with whatever generic rolling stock it provides.
