| I recently promised you some more 'trains on trucks', and here they come. As has been seen, many of LUL's Turbot ballast wagons have been visiting Eastleigh Works, some for overhaul, others for scrapping. It seems that various other types have also been making the trip to Hampshire. Seen passing through the town on 19th March 2019 was Allelys DAF XF T200AHH (fleetnumber 37), last seen on LTSV in 2015. The trailer looks to be the same one seen behind T800AHH at Acton this April. On the trailer is wagon GP906, one of 41 general purpose (hence the GP prefix) bogie opens built by Procor in 1985. Note the blue cargo straps, suggesting that the wagon was loaded. Closer inspection of the photo shows that it appears to be carrying several yellow panels, most probably the dropside doors latterly fitted to the Turbots. |
