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.

  • Network Rail Completes Major Work on £1.5Billion Midland Main Line Upgrade
    Network Rail completes major work on £1.5billion Midland Main Line Upgrade May 18, 2021 Network Rail has completed the biggest improvements to the Midland Main Line since it was built, meaning more seats, faster journeys and more reliable services for passengers travelling between the East Midlands and London. In the latest stage of the upgrade, teams have carried out vital work to install new overhead line equipment between Bedford and Corby, as well as improvements to station platforms and major work to upgrade bridges on the route – to make way for electrification between London St Pancras International and Corby. All of this work means there will be 50% more seats for passengers travelling at peak times between Corby and London. The new train timetable was introduced last Sunday (16 May), and East Midlands Railway launched its new all-electric service between Corby and London St Pancras International, providing a sixth train per hour. The upgrade, along with the new timetable, also boosts the number of seats on services across the East Midlands and cuts travel time between London and Derby, Leicester, Sheffield and Nottingham. It’s hoped the improvements will take more cars off the roads, as COVID restrictions ease and passengers return to the railway. Electric trains are quieter and much better for the environment that diesel trains. They produce almost 80% less carbon, benefitting people who live and work near the railway. Gary Walsh, Route Director for Network Rail’s East Midlands route, said: “As passengers return to the railway, it’s great to be welcoming them back with the biggest improvements in a generation on the Midland Main Line.

  • Midland Lodge, Sutton Park
    MIDLAND LODGE, SUTTON PARK A history of the building with details of its architecture, its association with two well-known tenants and the establishment of Sutton Coldfield’s Vesey Club in 1888. Roy Billingham Midland Lodge is a residential property situated within Sutton Park, designed by William Jenkins, a Birmingham architect, and built in 1880 for the Warden and Society of Sutton Coldfield. Following the Town’s incorporation in 1886, ownership passed to the new Corporation of Sutton Coldfield, and to Birmingham City Council in 1974 after Government reorganisation of local authority boundaries. The site of Midland Lodge (O.S. Grid Ref. SP 1121 9715) is adjacent to the Midland Gate entrance to Sutton Park at the western end of Midland Road which was constructed as a private road by the Midland Railway Company in 1879 to provide direct access for train passengers to and from the Park for their Sutton Park railway station. “New Lodge”, as the cottage was originally called, had several tenants prior to 1886 when Benjamin Stone, Sutton Coldfield’s first Mayor, took over the tenancy in order to meet the necessary residential qualifications to become a burgess of the Town. During his four years as Mayor, 1886-90, the lodge was known as “The Mayor’s Cottage” which he treated as his pied- à-terre, his own home being in Grange Lane, Erdington. After Stone terminated his tenancy in 1891 the cottage was referred to ever afterwards as “Midland Lodge”.

  • Railway Upgrade Plan – London North Eastern and East Midlands (LNE&EM)
    Railway Upgrade Plan – London North Eastern and East Midlands (LNE&EM) 2017/18 London North Eastern and East Midlands Glossary CaSL – Cancelled and Significantly Late. This measures how many trains are cancelled or are more than 29 minutes late at their terminating station. MAA – Moving Annual Average. PPM – Public Performance Measure. This is the percentage of trains that arrive at their terminating station within five minutes (for commuter services) or ten minutes (for long distance services) of when they were due. Reduction in railway work complaints measure – We believe that the number of complaints that we receive from the public about our work could be reduced if we improve how we inform people about work due to take place, and ensure all our staff behave considerately towards those living and working close to the railway. Each route is therefore aiming to reduce the number of complaints it receives in the coming year. Right Time Arrival – This measures the percentage of trains arriving at their terminating station early or within 59 seconds of schedule. 16 London North Eastern and East Midlands London North Eastern and East Midlands 17 London North Eastern and East Midlands (LNE&EM) Introduction from the route managing director – Rob McIntosh On LNE&EM, our purpose can be summarised with a simple phrase – we care about our people, we are proud about our work and we are passionate about railways. Each day, we serve around 20 per cent of the UK’s travelling public, with hundreds of commuter and leisure services connecting major cities and conurbations, supporting regional economies up and down the country.

  • Bedford the East West Rail Connection
    Bedford The East West Rail Connection The government and East-West Rail Company are planning new rail services linking Oxford and Cambridge to improve connections between East Anglia and central, southern and western England. Bedford lies at the heart of this route. Cambridge Bedford Bletchley Oxford This leaflet explains the case for east-west rail to directly serve Bedford. We are keen to keep you informed about these plans and hear your views. Find out more over the page Bedford The East-West Rail Connection East-west rail presents a once in a life time opportunity to locate Bedford at the centre of an international and national transport hub. Achieving this will re-establish Bedford on the inter-city network, reversing recent changes and optimizing travel north, south, east and west of Bedford. As a council we recognise the importance of rail and how it can boost the local economy and are calling on the government to support plans for east-west rail through Bedford. The case for east-west rail through central Bedford focuses on three key benefits: 1. Excellent connectivity - locally, nationally and internationally 2. Creating an international business hub 3. Regeneration - boosting jobs and the local economy East-West Rail Company is currently consulting on the future route of the central section of the east-west rail line. Securing east-west rail through Bedford is vital to creating opportunities not only as a key transport hub for both Bedford and the wider national transport network but also in providing key growth and vitality. East-West Rail and International Connectivity East-west rail plans present an excellent opportunity to not only connect the centre of Bedford with Oxford and Cambridge, but also enhance our international connectivity.
