I grew up nearby and remember being taken by my cousins on the final passenger train on the now lifted section between Plumpton Junction and Haverthwaite. The works shown at 3:20 aren't the old ironworks mentioned in the commentary but the dolly blue factory run by Reckitt & Colman which is now the Whitewater hotel. It was converted in the early to mid 1980s - I actually worked on the conversion as one of my earliest jobs.

It was the Central Electricity Generating Board (CEGB) who conducted this test in 1984. British Energy didn't exist until around 1996.

This crash test was a farce. The train consisted of only 3 coaches, when a normal passenger train in those days was 11 coaches, give or take. Had this been a full-length train the force of the collision would have been at least 10 times stronger, and the outcome far more realistic. But of course the test had to be fixed, because the flask had to be found to be intact afterwards. I saw this at the time, I was critical of it then and remain so today.

They were not testing the locomotive the train or coaches, they were testing the Nuclear waste container, which I believe was usually on a set 3 vehicles in length.
@DerekWalsh-l4i5 ай бұрын
@@electrocutas Yes, they were supposedly testing the strength of the nuclear flask. That flask could have derailed across the opposite track, and been run into by a diesel-hauled passenger train running at 100 mph. That train could have been 10- 12 coaches in length, and the force of the collision 10 times more than demonstrated here with a piddling 3-coach train. I say again, this crash test was a farce.

Closely involved in Operation Smash Hit - as a senior publicity officer for the CEGB at the time - was Discworld author Terry Pratchett. As Terry's biographer Rob Wilkins tells us, following on the event, a stock joke became: 'Now let's see them try that with a British Rail sandwich!'.

It was the arrival of TOPS that caused it to be renumbered from it's original number of D146. Assume that they didn't bother changing the data plate?!?
@brianwillson95676 ай бұрын
@simaesthesia as D146 it would have been a BR sulzer type 4. Classes 44, 45 and 46, collectively the peaks, were 'invented' with TOPS. It would have become class 46 at that point, never class 45. In any case class 45/0 did not exist until some 45s were fitted with ETH and class 45 locos became 45/1 , if ETH fitted or 45/0 if not ETH equipped.

I have followed its fortunes since it was founded. i do wish there were more brown heritage signs as from the Mansfield direction the roads are a series of small ones with sudden turns and a satnav is essential.
