operation clean sweep
operation clean sweep is what it said on the brake van --but just what this train is and what it is doing travelling south down the west coast mainline near acton bridge cheshire sometime in the early 1990's I have no idea----perhaps it is clearing up abandoned lineside equipment ?----subsequent research by my flickr colleage ARG FLICKR has confirmed that this was indeed an operation to clear abandoned items and lineside rubbish to prevent their use by vandals----thanks for that Andrew
