GBRf 66763 - 8T62 Autoballaster 16/03/2025
I kept the recording going till the Station manager closed the gates, with only a few mainline Stations around the UK going strong with Semaphore Signals and Manual Barriers, this is a wonderful recreation of the old days at Mainline Stations that now have modern Signalling and Automatic Barriers.
A video captures GBRf 66763, a Class 66 locomotive, slowly passing Whittlesea and heading back to Whitemoor Yard with Autoballasters. The footage includes the train's movement as the station manager closes the gates, highlighting the few remaining mainline stations in the UK that still use semaphore signals and manual barriers. This scene offers a glimpse into the traditional practices of railway operations that are increasingly being replaced by modern signalling and automatic systems.
