Clearance

Preserved steam locomotive, Class 7, 70013 Oliver Cromwell is making its way to the Great Central Way Railway Quorn station.

 

Grounding out happens quite often at this location looking the number of scrapes and grooves in the tarmac. Luckily these types of trailer have adjustable height! A quick pump up and there was enough clearance as you can see here.

 

"On 3 March 2018, 70013 hauled its final main line charter from Ealing Broadway to York via the Midland Main Line prior to the expiry of its boiler certificate. It was last steamed at the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway on 11 March 2018 before moving to the GCR for storage."
