These concrete segments are made in a factory out in Kent, then they are brought through London by train and delivered to the work site in Ruislip.

I think RA bring them as far as Calais on the other side? They are then brought through the tunnel by DB or GBRf class 92s - not Le Shuttle - to Dollands Moor freight yard near Folkestone.

Why do they intersperse cargo wagons?
@CambriaJunction
@CambriaJunction 10 ай бұрын
As far as I understand: partly to add braking force (the 777s' brakes can't be used) and partly as translators between the different coupling systems.
@neilcrawford8303
@neilcrawford8303 10 ай бұрын
The cargo vans have height adjustable and interchangeable adaptor couplings, while the flat wagons carry concrete slabs for additional ballast weight. The 777 are transported unbraked and through piped. You can see the brake pipe exiting the cab side window at the rear of each unit. They run the length of each unit. That way, should a coupling fail and the train splits, the brake pipe continuity will be lost, and the air pressure released, activating the brakes on the locomotive and the wagons. The 777 vehicles are sandwiched between the braked wagons to prevent a runaway in such circumstances. The wagons also provide additional brake force to the 66 during normal service brake applications.
