GBRf's 66766 'Gail Richardson' creeps along at the rear of an engineering train heading for the Sergo Logistics Park a short distance from this location in Roade. There was a full engineering possession over the long Easter weekend in order to complete the connection of the new logistics facility to the Northampton loop. This work has been going on for over a year now and I really am not too sure why the installation of two sets of facing points and the northern and southern end of the new lines has taken so long. This drawing out of jobs by Network Rail and its contractors seems to be the norm now.....comments welcome.
