[@johnson_street_IEMD]

Is the access line to the facility joining on to the line to Bishop Auckland?

[@WAVERLEYJOHN]

Yes

[@johnson_street_IEMD]

@WaverleyJohn so have they electrified it back to the ECML John ? - 805001 passing through Stafford on its way to Glasgow - kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4nFd3-boJd4jKs

Almost every video of us rail work and there is always a bunch of guys doing nothing just standing there. What a job.

[@colliecandle]

There's some cockeyed plant to be using - 'specially those sideways scissor contraptions !

[@jasinere35]

Impressionnant ! Sur 5 commentaires 1 seul est écrit en anglais correct. Mécanisation et robotisation à outrance, magnifique sur le plan de la technologie. J'aimerais bien savoir comment l'alignement des tronçons de voie est réalisé ici, notamment à l'endroit des aiguilles. Une pose manuelle aurait-elle été plus chère ? Plus lente ? Moins précise ?

Is it just me, they seem to be expending an awful lot of effort just to lay concrete sleepers? I'm referring to the things with the legs from 9.34 to 23.40.

[@brianmorris8045]

Seems a long winded process laying the new track there. I would have done the switch end first. Maybe there was method in their madness rather than madness in their method.

[@AndrewPoulsom]

How many men in orange does it take to lay track while standing around?

[@lewisner]

They are private contractors so you can guarantee they are not being paid for nothing.

[@brianmorris8045]

That question you asked has the makings of the beginning of a joke, but answer I know not of...lol

[@brianmorris8045]

Maybe they could be changing light bulbs while standing around?..lol

[@wattsmilly01]
