Dore West Curve Extension

The track work appears to be focused around the Dore West Curve area. Previously as trains came off the Midland Mainline and onto the West Curve, they joined the Hope Valley line almost immediately. Issues occured where if trains were held due to waiting for passenger trains on the Hope Valley line, the tail end of the freight would block the MML. To mitigate a new length of track has been added alongside the HVL (on the right) to allow stabling of freights without blocking passenger lines.

 

66719 and 66418 the locos present.

Reported stock with 66418 with 66419 on the rear
