Description
Due to landslides at Wadhurst & High Brooms closing the line, the 4Y19 Mountfield - Southampton Docks train was diverted creating an unusual sight. The train had to be Top 'n' tailed & reversed via the emergency crossover at Robertsbridge. The first two clips we see 66722 & 66729 arriving & reversing at Robertsbridge. Next up we see 66715 & 66729 completing the move the very next day at Robertsbridge & again passing Rye - the route itself has no booked freight so it made a nice sight!

Enjoy!
