Short Seshes Quickie: 8 Minutes of Carstairs | (10/06/17)

[@dobbinism]

Is it me or does the cant on the Edinburgh spur make the trains lean perilously over as they make the turn?

[@skytrains135]

David O'Brien I agree

[@fatwalletboy2]

Where was the pendolino off to from the glssgow direction. ....surely not Waverley unless it was ECS for an edin-eus service?

[@DTPORT5723]

It was an ECS. See description.

[@s125ish]

Nice to see hst to Glasgow

[@HarryBennellick]

at 1:24 that certain corner gives the impression that the train is leaning a lot. Is it just me?

[@DTPORT5723]

Carstairs East Curve is an incredibly sharp turn, hence 15mph or less going over it either way.

[@K-o-R]

You'd think they'd have fixed the cant in the last few decades.

[@edf6607]

maybe it has to slope the wrong way to tie in with the main line its joining with - which is canted towards the platform

[@markcf83]

​​@@K-o-R they've just spent a lot of money tidying up Carstairs and increasing the line speed limit.
