Route Specifications 2011 – London North Eastern Network Rail Route Specifications 2011 – London North Eastern “It’s an enormous national industry – surely one of the UK’s biggest.”* More people are using the railways today than at any time since the 1920s – some four million a day. Over the next few years we are investing in expanding and growing the railway, and developing plans for the future. *Passenger comment, May 2011 Helping Britain run better 2014-2019 will see a financially sustainable railway with more seats, shorter journey times and greater passenger satisfaction – we’ve just published an industry plan for the five years to 2019 mapping out what we think needs to be done to deliver a better, more sustainable rail network.

  • Collision. Wrawby Junction. 1983-12-09
    RAILWAY~NSPECTORATE DEPARTMENTOFTRANSPORT 2 MARSHAMSTREET LONDON SWIP 3EB 19th March 1985. I have the honour to report, for the information of the Secretary of State, in accordance with the Direc- tion of 21st December 1983 the result of my Inquiry into the collision between a freight train and apassenger train that occurred at about 18.18 on 9th December 1983 at Wrawby Junction, near Scunthorpe, in the Eastern Region of British Railways. 2. The 17.32 Cleethorpes to Sheffield 2-car Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) passenger train was travelling along the Down Fast lineat about 5 mile/h when it was struck about midway along the right-hand side of the leading carriage by Locomotive No. 47299 which was hauling the 15.02 Drax to Lindsey freight train compris- ing 9 empty oil tank wagons. Because a track-circuit failure prevented a set of points from operating and the protecting signals from clearing, the signalman had hand-cranked the points to the Normal position. He failed to clamp them Normal as he should have done. Both trains had been called forward under caution but the freight train driver failed to stop at the signal box. His train was diverted at low speed into the side of the passenger train through the points that had, in the meantime, reset themselves to the Reverse position. 3 The leading vehicle of the DMU was derailed and turned onto its side, the trailing vehicle was derailed but remainedupright. There were 1 I passengerson the DMU and1 regret to report that on'eof them was killed instantly, the Emergency Services were quickly at the scene and 3 others were taken to hospital 2 of whom were discharged after treatment.
