D MOOR FREIGHT CHORD
The reason for my visit,studying Realtime trains this morning I noticed a 9Z40 1151 St Pancras to D Moor Yard. I did not have a clue what it was but the chance to photograph something in daylight on the Chord was too good to miss as the freights that use it run at night. The chord was built to join D Moor Yard to HS1. In the picture the Up main line is on the left and the far right line is the Down line towards the Channel Tunnel. Eurostar 3218 & 3217 creep slowly down the chord having run from St Pancras to D Moor in 34 minutes!
