Werrington1
Werrington north of Peterborough 2000-2013
Stobart Pullman with class 47712 at Werrington just to north of Peterborough 26th April 2008
This train was The Harrogate Spring Flower Show
Class 47 802 was at the rear of the train (Top and Tailed)
The class 47 is on the down line on the Stamford Leicester line which runs along side the ECML to the left of this photo till Helpston. This down line is also the down slow for the ECML. It is wired with overhead wires till the ECML down slow rejoins the ECML at Helpston. There are no wires on the up line as the ECML has its own up slow.
Werrington is just north of of Peterborough, but there is now lots of new houses and factories offices and warehouses here and it is now part of Peterborough. There is a junction off the ECML on the Great Northern Loop to Spalding and Sleaford and Lincoln and Doncaster at Werrington Junction. There were water troughs on the East Coast Main line (ECML) here.
Class 47 802 was at the rear of the train (top and Tailed) at Werrington from the same footbridge.this 47 would be in charge of the return trip
Please note if you take video and stills this footbridge near to the Post Office storting office it can vibrate when the trains go by !

This website is Ukrailways1970tilltoday.me.uk it is on railways, but it is not just on trains, but all things railways, with photos, which I have taken from the 1970s till now. I take photos of all things railways, steam diesel and electric trains, signal boxes, wagons any thing that is on the National Rail network, which was BR when I started taken photos.
Today EWS, East Coast, Central trains and EWS are just some of the names on the trains. The name on the train does not mean, thats whos train it is these days. These names keep changing, but that means I have to keep taking photos. I also take photos of preserved railways with steam diesel and electric trains.There is lots more to add and I keep taking More!
