| As well as Blackbushe, Derek visited Eastleigh (near Southampton) on 18th January 2012 and came across the unexpected sight of two London Underground carriages being moved into the railway works there. First up was Metropolitan line car 6226, seen on board Allelys BX06XZY. This DAF XF tractor was photographed at Acton on similar work in 2010. Having squeezed past several trucks on the narrow section of Campbell Road, it was seen preparing to make the tight turn onto the railway bridge. The guy at the back was operating the steering on the trailer. Providing some cross-over to my other website, the railway wagons visible in the background include HQA, JNA, MRA and ZCA ballast carriers. |
